Recent reports have revealed that the Chicago Blackhawks are no longer in question to acquire Patrick Kane in the off-season giving the Boston Bruins a better chance.
Patrick Kane will be one of the most sought after free agents if he decides to test out free agency, and with recent reports that the Chicago Blackhawks will not be trying to sign him, it gives the Bruins a much better chance at getting a shot at signing him.
The Detroit Red Wings still have the best chance at re-signing him as reported they have a 46% chance, and the Boston Bruins have the second best chance at 11%.
Kane last season demonstrated that he still has what it takes to be able to produce in the NHL even after undergoing a crazy hip surgery in the off-season.
He was nearly a point-per-game player after signing late with the Detroit Red Wings putting up 47 points in 50 games and almost helped the Red Wings punch their ticket to the playoffs.
This is exactly what the Bruins need, although he is getting older and slower, he can still provide the secondary scoring the Bruins need heading into next year.
Should the Bruins go after Kane if he hits free agency?
