Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson said he expects a Patrick Kane trade decision ‘soon’ as the Mar. 3 trade deadline approaches.

Kane, 34, is in the final season of the eight-year, $84 million contract he signed in the 2014 off-season, and his no-movement clause means he won’t be going anywhere of which he doesn’t approve.

“Patrick has done a lot for the organization,” Davidson told reporters on Sunday. “He’s done a tremendous amount for the city. And he deserves the leeway to make the right decision for himself, and so we’re gonna give him that space. But when we do get to a conclusion, one way or the other, it’ll be through a partnership and collaborative decision-making process.”

“I’m assuming [Kane’s decision is] going to be soon,” Davidson added. “The idea that there not being a decision reached is looked negatively on by us — I just want to dispel that notion. That’s not at play here.”
