NHL insider Rick Dhaliwal said.<\/p>\n<p>Insider reveals how much of Evander Kane&#8217;s salary the Vancouver Canucks are willing to retain<\/p>\n<p>Because it hasn&#8217;t been a great season for Evander Kane, who is coming off back-to-back appearances in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Vancouver Canucks are likely going to need to retain some salary in order to receive something of substance in return.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canucksdaily.com\/nhl-team\/vancouver-canucks\/a-clearer-picture-forms-of-what-the-vancouver-canucks-are-demanding-for-evander-kane\" class=\"lien_marqueur\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">The most likely outcome for the Vancouver Canucks<\/a> is a mid-round pick, with Sportsnet&#8217;s Elliotte Friedman reporting that they&#8217;re seeking a third rounder, while David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period shared that he believes Patrik Allvin is willing to eat upwards of 50 percent of Kane&#8217;s remaining salary just to get a deal done.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They want something back for Evander Kane, they will retain, and I get the sense they&#8217;re willing to go to 50% of that deal; but they want a draft pick or a prospect back.&#8221; Pagnotta said on Wednesday&#8217;s edition of DFO Rundown.<\/p>\n<p>The good news for the Vancouver Canucks is that &#8211; a) they have two retention spots left and b) Evander Kane&#8217;s cap hit after a 50 percent retention would only be $2.5625 million, which is very manageable for the club.<\/p>\n<p>While the Canucks would like to get a trade done sooner rather than later, preferably before the National Hockey League&#8217;s Olympic roster freeze on Wednesday, it&#8217;s unclear if that will be achievable, but there are a number of teams in the mix including the Colorado Avalanche, Dallas Stars and Los Angeles Kings, the latter of whom have reportedly held discussions about a potential deal.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a chance that tonight&#8217;s game could be Evander Kane&#8217;s last at Rogers Arena as a member of the Vancouver Canucks and with the amount of scouts expected in attendance, the hope is that he can put on a good show and impress them ahead of an eventual move.<\/p>\n<p>Previously on Vancouver Hockey Daily<\/p>\n<p>POLL<\/p>\n<p>JANVIER 31|968 ANSWERS<\/p>\n<p>Vancouver Canucks make their stance clear on how much they are willing to retain of Evander Kane\u2019s contract<\/p>\n<p>Do you think tonight will be Evander Kane&#8217;s final game with the Vancouver Canucks?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13;
