As the 2023-24 NHL season gets underway, star winger Patrick Kane remains unsigned as a free agent while he continues to rehab from offseason hip surgery. However, according to a new rumor circulating, Kane may have narrowed down his list of potential destinations to just two teams - the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Dallas Stars.

Patrick Kane Tied to the Legendary Maple Leafs

Both clubs make sense as front runners for Kane's services. The Maple Leafs are considered one of the top Stanley Cup contenders in the Eastern Conference and adding an elite offensive talent like Kane could help put them over the top. Toronto also allows Kane to rehab close to home while he makes his decision.

Dallas Stars Reportedly Frontrunners for the First Overall Pick

Meanwhile, the Stars represent a Western Conference team that made an impressive run to the Finals in 2020. With acquiring Kane, Dallas would add another dynamic piece to a group that expects to contend again this season. Their depth and goal-tending could entice Kane to sign on.

Signing to Come Imminently as Kane Returns to Being Fully Healthy

Kane's agent has indicated a signing could be coming within the next couple weeks. So hockey fans will be keenly watching to see whether he ends up in Toronto or Dallas for the 2023-24 season and beyond.
