Initially set for an early-week reveal, Patrick Kane's decision is now anticipated to extend into the following week. The intricacies of timing, particularly during the U.S. Thanksgiving week, add an element of mystery to the evolving scenario. Earlier this month, Chris Johnston, TSN Hockey Insider, pinpointed potential suitors, including the Buffalo Sabres, New York Rangers, Detroit Red Wings, and Florida Panthers.
At 34, Patrick Kane is on the verge of a comeback following hip resurfacing surgery on June 1. A recovery timeline of four to six months aligns with a revealing video shared by Brisson on September 27, spotlighting Kane's dedicated conditioning routine.
In the previous season, Kane divided his time between the Blackhawks and the Rangers after a trade deadline move. Over 73 games with both teams, he secured 21 goals and amassed 57 points. In the playoffs, Kane contributed one goal and six points in seven games as the Rangers faced an early exit in the first round.
As the days come, it'll be interesting to see where Kane ends up.
