Injury Report: Patrick Kane - UPDATED 4/13/15: Medically cleared!!!

[Blackhawks26]

Wow losing Kane really really hurts ....

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Q said something along the lines of "being out for a little bit."

So, breaking out the Q speak translator.... a few games?

 

[Blue Liner]

I care way more about the Hawks but on a more "frivalous" note, it's really a shame Kane went down in a season where he's a potential Art Ross winner. Historically a shame too as an American has never won it and this was as good a chance as any.

I'm gonna say a few weeks. Maybe not broken collarbone maybe just a jacked up shoulder.. hell maybe even wrist

Just be back for playoffs please.

As long as he's back for the playoffs, whatever.

This team's major issue continues to be shot suppression, and Kane isn't exactly a key contributor to that. If they can fix their shot suppression issues, then the team will likely be rolling by the time Kane comes back. If they can't, then his return will likely end up being meaningless.

Sounded way more serious to me. I think he's gone for a while. If its 6 weeks or more than kiss the season goodbye.

 

[Taze em]

Let's not get too crazy. If we don't have Kane 1st round vs the Blues it's still a 50/50 series. If you white knuckle that one, Kane should be back 8 weeks out no matter what the injury is.

I don't think it's frivolous, it's always disappointing to see a player get injured when they're playing career-best hockey. His absence just weakens the Art Ross race that much more.

As for what Q actually meant... who the **** knows.

& I don't think the Hawks win a series without him.

 

[Blackhawks26]

Need to make a move at the TD now.

 

[ToewsForDays]

Just read that Q said "He might miss some time, will know the extent of it tomorrow"

It's 50/50 vs. the Blues when Kane is in the lineup, I can't see us winning without him. That is a HUGE part of the offense missing.

 

[Blackhawks26]

Tuevo time

No it isn't 50/50 with him in it. The betting lines tell you exactly what it is. I'd expect it to be 60/40 with Kane based on the past and this season.

The Blues are slumping right now too, BTW.

Either way the point is that this team can still win.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

Let's not jump to conclusions on what may play out 21 games from now. We could land a forward and top 4 defenseman by then and use that LTIR $ effectively to get ourselves back to where we need to be for a cup run.

Hawks are just a completely different team without one of Kane/Toews(or both obviously). Thats too big of a blow to get by a team as good as STL.

Really sucks that the Hawks 1st round opponent has to be such a quality team.....if not, then maybe id agree with you that they can get by without him for one series.

It isn't too big of a blow to get past. The Hawks could absolutely get past the Blues without Kane. It would be very very hard, sure. It isn't a death sentence.

Nope.

"a little bit" was what Q said after TVR got hurt I'm pretty sure

I suppose it would be possible, but i would pick the Blues to win that series(no Kane) if you held a gun to my head.

 

[So Truculent]

First Seguin, now Kane....god dammit my fantasy season is going down the drain now.

 

[featherhawk]

saad-TT-hossa
bickell-richards-macniell
shaw-kruger-smith

while were at it bring up dahlbeck

keith-rundblad
hammer-dahlback
cumisky -seabrook

 

[clydesdale line]

Jesus. I missed the game but Kane got hurt bad? First DRose now this. All I need to hear now is Chris Sale torn his elbow and this will be one of the worst nights in sports for me.

[Taze em]

The silver lining is that this happened before the deadline. Stan just got alot busier.
