Kane played four productive seasons in Edmonton. This season, he was out for the entire regular season but scored 6+6=12 in 21 playoff games.
Kane’s annual salary is 5.125 million dollars. Edmonton now has 17 million dollars in cap space. However, the team still needs to sign a contract extension with top defenseman Evan Bouchard.
