Interesting timing lol Ryan Rishaug @TSNRyanRishaug My sense on Kane is surgery is the most likely course of action. Process is still underway to determine exactly what needs to be done, as there were several significant issues he was dealing with. He is not likely to be ready for training camp, and it could be several months into the season before he’s available. "several months into the season". Beautiful :) Still though, need a real D upgrade pls. Don't waste Kane's LTIR just to keep Broberg and Holloway and the rest of the current D group

Good thread from @NHL_Sid on twitter about this. With aging and flawed defence, can you afford to lose a 23-year old? There's no one else under 25 other than Bouchard. Nurse is 29 and the only one under 30.

But at the same time, Broberg is LHD ideally and we have big money tied up in Nurse and Ekholm on the left for years to come. This would be an easier choice if Broberg shot right where it's an absolute wasteland after Bouchard. That Kesselring trade sure looks stupid right now. Thanks a lot, Ken Holland.
