Patrick Kane would certainly look odd at first in a Minnesota Wild sweater.

Wouldn’t it be weird to see Patrick Kane play for the Minnesota Wild? Yes. Yes, it would. Although, Corey Perry currently plays for the Chicago Blackhawks which would have been just as crazy of a thought 5 years ago.

Patrick Kane had hip surgery during the off-season which lined up with his unrestricted free agency. He is free to go wherever he wants but he is waiting until he is fully recovered. That might be sooner than later with November approaching.

The Wild should absolutely consider going for Kane. They could use someone who can make plays in the offensive zone. The Wild could use another boost in terms of goal-scoring and Kane would do that as long as he is healthy again.

Guys like Kirill Kaprizov and Matt Boldy amongst others would be able to make some amazing plays if they got a chance to play with someone that can skate and pass like Kane. It would be a great match at this point.

If there was a way to convince Kane that the Wild are right for him, the possibilities would be endless. He drives offense like a center which is something they sure need.
