They could still be in on him... As long as they give up on Trouba.
Detroit's got a lot of cap space and a lot of roster spots available. Not including Kane, they only have 12 players signed to one-way NHL contracts for next season. They have $32M +/- to spend on 6 forwards & 2 d-men.
Lucas Raymond & Moritz Seider are RFAs and will get paid handsomely, Veleno a bridge deal. Assuming all three combine for $16M +/- and Kane takes a $5M deal, that's $21M on 4 players. They can splurge heavily on Stamkos and get a prospect or two to fill out the roster. But that takes them out of the running for Trouba.
Not that I understood why they'd want Trouba in the first place.

Why in all that is holy would anyone want Trouba? Steep decline incoming.

Nothing against Tanev but sure sounds like Toronto never learns.

I like Tanev a lot though, but anything more than a 2 years contract is dicey
