Patrick Kane has had a lot of problems with his hip for the past couple of years and even still, has proven he can produce at the National Hockey League level at a fairly high level.
Kane is in no rush to return to the NHL, after recovering from hip surgery this off-season, but it looks like he could be making a return to the New York Rangers when he's ready; take a look.
Vladimir Tarasenko going to Ottawa only opens up the door for Patrick Kane to come back to #NYR. There may be more salary cap configuring like there was this past year, but with Kane being out for a while, Drury can make something work with Kane's camp on a pro-rated deal. With Vladimir Tarasenko recently signing a one year deal with the Ottawa Senators, it makes a return to the Rangers more likely for Kane. Not only does New York have more cap space to work with, because Kane is going to be our until at least late December according to his agent, it would make sense for the Rangers to bring him back.
Kane, 34, had 57 points in 73 games last season including 21 goals and 36 assists injured. If he returns to the Rangers fully healthy in December, it's not unlikely that he lights the league on fire when he's fully healthy.
