Maybe you don't understand the severity of the issue before this 2-4 game little hot streak of depth scoring, literally 70%+ of the goals were coming from Matthews and Nylander alone
If Kane is signing somewhere within the next week or so and wants to come here for cheap, there hasn't been enough of a sample size to trust the depth so greatly to say that you wouldn't be adding Kane (57 points in 73 games last year, 92 points in 78 games the year before)
In general since the changes they have gotten results. But still there issue is not scoring its defense.
Pk is almost dead last and 5 on 5 defense has been ew.
2 guys getting goals tells us nothing besides hey they good
JT has 6 goals Marner 5 goals, after its 4 from Knies and Jarnkrok, 3 from Bertuzzi, 2 from Gregor and Robertson, 1 from Kampf, and assists from Domi and McMann
Getting PP1 time or just being good often helps with scoring goals or putting up point. Like at this point while there is a chance he could contribute we may also see the same issues we saw with Bertuzzi and Domi early on. Where the defensive issues were present and they werent producing enough to silence the critics. And Kane has been one of if not the worst defensive forward in the NHL.
If he agrees to league min and to rotate in and out (like Kessel) than maybe its fine but I just dont see it. And he wants to be an everyday guy so if he struggles we cant take him out without pissing him off.
Cause with the limited cap we got and other factors focus should be fixing the Dcore
