New Details Emerge About Patrick Kane's Next Contract

The buzz around Patrick Kane's upcoming contract has reached a new high as we approach July 1st. There's much speculation about his value, considering his past deal, which stood at a stunning $10.5 million AAV.

While he may no longer play at the smae level he was ten years ago, information from DailyFaceoff suggests that he won't be cheap.

Frank Seravalli, relies on insights from AFP Analytics to predict Kane's prospective deal. According to these projections, Kane could earn an AAV of $5.75 million for three years. Interestingly, this figure is just a modest $500K AAV increase over what fellow UFA Tyler Bertuzzi is projected to earn, based on the same metrics.

Kane's track record includes a couple of spectacular 100+ point seasons, solidifying his place in the HHoF. Last season, he managed to notch up 57 points over 73 regular-season games. Also, his playoff performance for the Rangers was impressive, almost scoring a point per game in the seven-game first-round series against the New Jersey Devils.

Where do you think he'll end up?
