E. Kane on LTIR until playoffs

[Three On Zero]

Can you explain how a player would understand an injury timeline better than a doctor? Kane is barely skating at this point

That’s pretty simple to do. A player understands their body better than a doctor does. A doctor makes an approximation where as the actual hurt player knows factually how he feels.

He's not even practicing yet so your simple explanation is simple minded. Kane has never had this surgery or recover before so how would he know? Doctors use imaging, precious cases, and objective info instead of " I think I'll be ready to play in a month even though I'm not healthy enough to practice today and have never experienced this recovery before". Keep reaching though

So all that whining about Vegas and Tampa from Oiler fans should now be directed Evander's way correct?

 

[jetsforever]

Sucks, hope he's back out there soon

 

[MXD]

I thought he was careered' over.

Again, a player knows his own body and recovery path better than a doctor who approximates. Recovery can either be quicker or longer based on the individual.

Please tell me we didn't leave money on the table and went to the cap with LTIR like the good teams do????

which table? roulette?

Oilers have a first round bye at the moment so they should be good if they get the Kings who they match very well versus.

Dont need the LTIR cao moves to beat the Kings.

R2 and onwards will see if the LTIR cheat helps them or not

R2 vs Knights will be a tough one

Isn’t the idea to do this before the TDL so you can add a bunch of talent?

Kane has been on LTIR since the beginning of the season and they used most of his LTIR pool yesterday.

Ab surgery recovery and rehab is no joke. He’s got to be ready for a very deep run in the playoffs. They are rightfully not going to rush it.

To be fair I would expect a guy who can't grasp pdo to also think an athlete understands physiology better than a doctor

And this the type of comment that shows someone’s lost the conversation . Recovery periods can vary, one individual can recover earlier and another could take even longer when recovering from the same surgery. Not a single doctor will tell you down to the day when an injury will be fully recovered.

Kane could easily be ahead of his recovery curve by a month while the next athlete could be a month behind. And no doctor can accurately predict that.

It's ok until a Canadian team does it. Enjoy retroactively losing a 2nd round pick Edmonton

Was just wondering how long until Canadian Victimhood entered the chat.

 

[ffh]

Unlike Tampa and Vegas this move won't result in a Stanley Cup

It was always here, just waiting, lurking, biding time
