Teuvo Teravainen has been cleared by FIN federation/Jokerit to join CHI. Hawks will decide in coming days where (NHL or AHL)/when he plays.
Good. All in management's hands, now.

I would regardless.
It's Teuvo Time!
.............. for the Rockford Icehogs.
Who are you going to waive to make room for Teuvo?
No. He won't be in Rockford this year. If he plays 10 games *anywhere* in North America, his ELC starts running. NHL, AHL, ECHL, whatever. He will be playing his 9 games in the NHL and then Stan and co. will decide if he's going to play more. He won't touch the AHL until next season, if even then.

Patrick Kane would have to meet the following criteria to be placed on LTIR:What room? The only "room" needed is cap space; Kane on LTIR takes care of that. There is no roster limit post-trade-deadline. The Hawks could have 50 players on their roster if they all fit under the salary cap.
Teams are eligible to receive cap relief when a player is considered to have a "bona-fide long-term injury" — injuries that cause a player to miss at least 10 games and 24 days. In such cases, the team can place the player on long-term injured reserve (LTIR).
His nickname will be Tervo. (TARE-VOH)

yep, nothing would happen with his ELC but why worry about the ELC?
If Kane were placed on LTIR tomorrow (3/20), the first day he could be activated would be 4/14 (24 days later), which would mean he would miss the last 12 games of the regular season. If the doctors really think he will be ready to go in 3 weeks (21 days) he could be back for the last two games of the regular season against Washington and Nashville, both on the road. Those last two games might be pretty important in terms of positioning for 1st/2nd/3rd in the division. Tough call.
On the other hand, if 3 weeks is an optimistic estimate, then it's a pretty easy decision to LTIR him and have the cap space for TT, Morin and others.
He would be free to be activated on Apr 11, for the 2nd last game against WSH. That is also the end of 3 weeks. I'm sure they go a couple games here to see how they play without him. If they are playing well, there is no need for a call up.
I see the CBA saying 10 games and 24 Days, that would put Kane out until the 12th.
I thought it said 10 games OR 24 days, my bad.
Wouldn't that be something. That's a surname. Mine to be exact. Written and pronounced just like that.
