It appears Chicago Blackhawks winger Patrick Kane's recovery following surgery on his wrist could take longer than first anticipated........

While I love people who dig up old threads and post instead of creating new ones, we're talking about this in the off season training thread. And don't take that comment as a knock just some information.

My bad...was not sure how everyone feel about new threads.....I learn from feedback!



No offense taken.... I am a big boy!



At least you love me for doing it, instead of hating me for doing it!

Just a little update. Cast comes off tomorrow for good. It was mis quoted when asked if he'd be ready. He meant he'd be ready when the season started, NOT meaning he wouldn't be ready for any preseason games, although thinking he won't play until the last two home ones. They don't play them all either way.



Anyway good news is he's ready to get going again.

Awesome news... thanks for the update, RK!

 

[Ton]

Great news, thanks for the update!

You were all a week ahead of our great Chicago Blackhawks sporting beat writers.



Can they just drop the puck already so these guys have something "tangible" to report on. Twitter has basically been a giant regurgitation today. Yikes!!

That was exactly my thought - thanks RK!

 

[Ton]

Yup, plus they said he expects to play 3-4 preseason games, and the splint come off the 15th.

 

[R K]

No, they said he'd like to play 3-4 which he did last year. Trust me I watched the twitter feed. They are bored with baseball sucking.



He could very well play 3-4 but I still expect him to play one of the last two home pre season games.



The splint comes off about 8 times a day for him to exsercise the wrist.

Eight times a day?! Is he that lonely?

 

[R K]

LOL



Now that I don't know. I'm pretty sure there's a line waiting to help out on that one.
