Kane said the trade of Alex DeBrincat was "crushing" and "disappointing."
"He was my best friend. Definitely a guy I'll miss playing with," added Kane.
"Not only did I feel we had some great chemistry on the ice, but he was one of my best friends and closest teammates off the ice. He's going to develop into a great player, better than he already is."
That's something the Ottawa Senators, who snagged Debrincat in the offseason are certainly hoping for. Meanwhile, Kane has seen many teammates come and go since Chicago last won the Stanley Cup. It seems the DeBrincat trade had a real impact, though.
