Patrick Kane Returns to Chicago, Two-Year Deal

  On Thursday, the Chicago Blackhawks agreed to terms with former star forward Patrick Kane on a two-year, $16 million contract that includes a no-move clause. Patrick Kane played the first of his 19 NHL seasons with Chicago, winning the Stanley Cup three times in Chicago in 2010, 2013, and 2015.

Panarin To LAK, Greentree To NYR

 




The Artemi Panarin era in New York came to an end Wednesday, as the Rangers traded the star winger to the Los Angeles Kings ahead of the NHL’s roster freeze. In return, New York acquired 20-year-old forward prospect Liam Greentree, a conditional third-round pick in 2026, and a conditional fourth-round pick in 2028. The Rangers are retaining 50 percent of Panarin’s salary as part of the deal.


Panarin departs New York after recording 57 points in 52 games this season, having served as one of the team’s primary offensive contributors since arriving in 2019.

Greentree, the Kings’ first-round selection (26th overall) in the 2024 NHL Draft, is currently playing for the Windsor Spitfires of the OHL, where he has produced 45 points in 34 games this season.



Shortly after the trade, Los Angeles signed Panarin to a two-year, $22 million contract extension, keeping him with the Kings through the 2027-28 season. Panarin waived his full no-movement clause to facilitate the trade.

For the Rangers, the move adds a high-end young asset and future draft capital, while the Kings add an established scorer as they look to strengthen their roster in the present.
