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

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Plus it allows Vermette to center a checking line (if Q actually puts him back at center) and allow Toews to get slightly easier matchups and more O-zone starts.

Who's Vermette skating with? Shaw and Bickell? Or is he playing wing still?

Apparently not on any of the top 4 lines today, Shaw with Bickell and Sharp as the 3rd line and Nordy on the 4th. According to Powers, Q was noncommittal on his status for Game 1 so I'd take that as a sign that this is just a message to Vermette and he probably plays Wednesday but most likely at wing.

Saad Toews Hossa
Versteeg Richards Kane
Bickell Vermette Sharp
Teravainen Kruger Shaw

Versteeg sits if he doesn't show immediate improvement, and we go with

Saad Toews Hossa
Teravainen Richards Kane
Bickell Vermette Sharp
Desjardins Kruger Shaw

@ESPNChiPowers: Quenneville said Kane could play in Game 1.

Gee,, seems like these media guys may know something.

I get the need for sending a message. But if Q sits Antoine Vermette for somebody like Nordstrom....

They've been about the same in terms of effectiveness.

Slight offtopic:

With Kane possibly coming back for game 1, which duo would you pick for fantasy (d-men get more points for goals & assists).

Kane & Niskanen (WSH) or Hossa & Keith?

Hossa & Keith. Saad is back with Toews/Hossa and they are unreal together. Keith's minutes will jump and plays PPQB1.

Glad he's back! We need him...Go Hawks!
