Per the Oilers, Evander Kane’s recovery from abdominal surgery is expected to take a minimum of five months. They suggest it could be six months — or longer.
We’re talking about most or all of the regular season here.
5-6 months + 1-2 months to get up to speed in practice. Maybe we really will finally use LTIR to our advantage
More on the injury/surgery

Kane will have surgery in the next couple of days. He mentioned Sean Monahan as someone who gave him great advice and information that helped him make his decision on which doctor to go with. Kane met with three different doctors. They all agreed what surgery was required but had different ways to approach it.
“I’m having a lot done. I have two hernias and two torn abdominal muscles,” Kane on his upcoming surgery.
Did he start with a hernia last Oct/Nov and turned it into 2 hernia's and torn muscles trying to play through it? Still so odd how his injury was handled.
