Patrick Kane might not be the player he once was. But with the NHL free agency window opening on July 1, the three-time Stanley Cup winner is bound to draw interest. Kane turns 36 on Nov. 19.
Ahead of the July 1 start to the league’s free agency window, BetMichigan.com developed the following Patrick Kane odds for where the future Hall of Famer will land next season. As a reminder, these odds are for infotainment purposes only and are exclusive to BetMichigan.com. You will not find them at any licensed Michigan sports betting operator.
Kane will become a free agent in a week, and odds are he’s looking to sign with a Stanley Cup contender. Detroit just missed out on the playoffs this season, and while Kane may very easily resign with them, reports from the past weekend indicate he may be interested in going back to a former club.
After signing a one-year deal with Detroit last year, Kane still performed at a high level. He only appeared in 50 games – the fewest he has played in a non-lockout season – and his average time-on-ice of 18:23 was his lowest since his rookie season in 2007-08.
But the former Calder, Ross and Hart Trophy winner still scored 20 goals in the 2023-24 season with Detroit. That was the 16th time in 17 seasons he has reached that mark. He also tallied 27 assists to finish sixth on the team in points.
We will see if a Kane signing makes any team’s futures odds shift at Michigan sportsbook apps for the 2024-25 season.
Why Patrick Kane Could Make It Back To New York
Kane won three Stanley Cups with Chicago, but the Blackhawks dealt him to the New York Rangers before the 2023 trade deadline. He scored just five goals and added 12 assists in 19 regular season games with the Blueshirts and added six more points (1 goal, 5 helpers) as the Rangers lost in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs last year.
According to a report over the weekend from The Hockey News, Kane may eye a return to Broadway. There’s no certainty the Rangers are similarly interested. However, a player of Kane’s stature could work well with either a combination of left wing Artemi Panerin (49G, 71A, 120P) and center Vincent Trocheck (25G, 52A, 77P) or left wing Chris Kreider (39G, 36A, 75P) and center Mika Zibanejad (26G, 46A, 72P).
Oddsmakers at Caesars Michigan Sportsbook currently list the Rangers as their third choice to win the NHL’s Eastern Conference next season, offering them at +600. The Rangers Stanley Cup odds for next season are +1200, making them the co-sixth shortest price along with the Vegas Golden Knights.

If Not The Rangers…
New York may not be the only Cup contender in play for Kane’s services. On Monday, The Athletic ranked all 32 teams by their wing depth. It mentioned that the Colorado Avalanche, Boston Bruins, Florida Panthers, Dallas Stars and Carolina Hurricanes will all be looking to add a piece to their top two lines this offseason.
Fanatics Michigan Sportsbook offers the Rangers as the second choice on its 2025 Stanley Cup board, giving them odds of +1000. Only the Oilers at +900 have shorter odds. Carolina is right behind them at +1200.
Interested in Detroit’s odds for next season? Over at DraftKings Michigan Sportsbook, the Red Wings are available at +3500 to win the Cup. Detroit last appeared in the playoffs in 2016 and has not held the Cup since 2008.
