Bos already has these FWD contracts: $7.25m, $6.875m, $6.125m, $6m and still have to sign Pasta; so probably ~$32m tied up in FWDs already. Adding Kane puts about half the cap into those 6 FWDs ($37m).
They need defensive help more than another high priced FWD (Kane), and the just spent two of their best trade chips to get Kane.
MN trade isn't near enough. 2 quality NHL players for stuff, not even good stuff, just stuff that's of no use for at least a couple of seasons.
Bos could offer the same thing for Brodin and both Bos and MN would be in better shape than making these trades.
