Report: Sharks, Ducks, Flyers looking at Evander Kane

The San Jose Sharks, Anaheim Ducks, and, to a "lesser extent," the Philadelphia Flyers are three teams reportedly looking at Buffalo Sabres forward Evander Kane as a potential trade target, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.

Teams interested in acquiring Kane could be waiting to see what the return might be in a Rick Nash trade, according to McKenzie.

Kane is in the final season of his six-year, $31.5-million contract and will become an unrestricted free agent July 1.

The 26-year-old has put up 20 goals and 20 assists on an ailing Sabres club that currently sits just one point ahead of the 31st-ranked Arizona Coyotes. With three more points he'll match his 43-point total from last season.
