Kane is out an additional 6-8 weeks. That puts him at late Feb-early March to return to hockey activities. If you had any doubt about if he's going on LTIR until the end of the season, I think this answers that question. This could open up some significant cap space leading up to the deadline to add some extra bodies, like a partner for Nurse or another top six winger who could play alongside Leon or Connor.
I will admit, the idea of bringing Hall back to play alongside Leon is enticing to me. They had great chemistry the season before Chia lost his mind. However, I'd be shocked if Chicago pulls off a deal with Bowman unless we give them something stupid.
