Kane free agency is closed. The Chicago Blackhawks announced a two-year, $16 million deal (AAV $8M) with a full no-movement clause. After the Rangers and Detroit, the three-time Cup winner is back.
Why it matters for Bedard
After his $75M extension, Connor Bedard said Kane return would bring juice to the team and the building. They never played together. Now the icon-plus-superstar link is real, even if shoulder surgery keeps Bedard out until November.
Return calendar
Chicago opens Sept 29 in Vegas; the home opener is Oct 6 vs St. Louis. First trip to Detroit is Oct 29.
