Oilers fans know Kane was injured throughout the years since being an Oiler, but they also know that he does not fit at ALL so we have to try to get rid of him. This won't probably happen but this is the best thing that will happen.

Hasn't worked out since the first year, need cap space and is easier than getting rid of Kane as an Oilers fan.

At this point, the Oilers NEED to get rid of Darnell due to his contract. It's for the future for McDavid, Draisaitl, Hyman, Nuge, and even Bouchard if they want to be serious about winning a cup.

With this trade, this can be a young piece for the Oilers as an depth shooter around the fields. Can be efficient with superstars through the experience of Matthews, Nylander, etc, but can also be goal scorer with 3rd & 4th liners. Also a very good even-strength player.
