It’s already been reported that he won’t be going to LTIR, he’s going to be ready for training camp. He doesn’t require surgery.It’s taking longer than people would like (much like the Draisaitl extension), but I think all signs point to him having surgery and then milking the recovery process to stay on LTIR as long as possible.
From what I can see, they’d need him to miss around 1/2 the season to get enough LTIR relief to offset the extensions Broberg and Holloway need to sign (I think the deal Barron just signed would be fair 1.15 x 2).
Then you roll with this until Kane get back:
Nuge-McD-Hyman
Skinner-Drai-Arvi
Holloway-Rico-Brown
