This hockey season for Evander Kane and Stuart Skinner certainly took different routes, and certainly not what they expected. Kane's first full season with the Oilers was taking off almost at a point per game when he was cut down by a grisly wrist injury.
It sent shockwaves through the NHL, no one wants to see that kind of injury. The help and assistance Kane received for this was off the charts and he has been repeatedly singing the praises of everyone who helped him.
Stuart Skinner, on the other hand, was called up and played exceptionally well. He was rewarded with a new contract of 2.6 million per season for three seasons. In the last number of days, he has welcomed his first child with his wife Chloe and he is on top of the world.
With both teammates returning to practice and the lineup, Kane and Stuart shared a hug on the ice during practice.
This shows how teammates can show respect for one another and the bonding of people during stressful and joyful times. We want to offer our congratulations to the Skinner family for their new bundle of joy.
