Patrick Kane tells The AP he’s back on the ice and feeling himself again 3 months since hip surgery
Associated PressNHL free agent forward Patrick Kane told The Associated Press on Thursday he’s been on the ice about 20 times already and is on track, if not ahead of the initial four to six month projection in returning to play since having hip resurfacing surgery on June 1. But it’s a lot better than I was last year.” As for where he’ll be playing, Kane is staying patient while expecting to field offers once NHL teams open training camp in three weeks. Then again, he added: “If someone wanted to come and give an offer that I was excited about, and a situation that I’m excited about, it’s not like I wouldn’t be listening just because of the situation I’m in.” Kane’s production dipped last season in which he finished with 21 goals and 57 points in 73 games. 1 draft pick in 2007, Kane joined Washington’s Nicklas Backstrom and Carl Hagelin as players to have the invasive hip surgery over the past year.
