Not to be rude, but I'm guessing your son didn't have the physical therapy and the physician care that Patrick Kane will get over whatever period of time he misses. PT becomes these guys lives when they are injured. I'd guess your son was still going to school eight hours a day and doing homework. Patrick Kane's everything just became getting better from this injury.
I am feeling as negative as anyone on this board about this injury, but he won't miss 10-12 weeks.
Quite the season for Hawks' injuries....TVR (knee), Sharp (knee), Crawford (foot), Versteeg (hand), Oduya (whatever the heck "upper body" means) and now Kane (shoulder). I guess you could say the Hawks have been lucky over the last few years, but there is no denying this team has be gutted by injury to key players more than any other team in the league in 2014-15.
