Three teams now stand out in the race for Patrick Kane

Now that the New York Rangers are no longer in the running for Patrick Kane, the question on everyone's mind is where the Blackhawks star will end up, if he is traded by March 3rd, of course.

As reported by tipster Elliotte Friedman during his most recent 32 Thoughts, #88 must now decide his future, as he must exercise his no-movement clause to be traded.

Moreover, among the teams that would have shown serious interest in the 34-year-old American, according to the renowned journalist Mark Lazerus, there would be the Minnesota Wild, the Carolina Hurricanes and the perennially active during the trade deadline, the Vegas Golden Knights.

It will be interesting to follow this file closely, as the arrival of a Patrick Kane in one of these already well-stocked offenses would be incredible!
