Edmonton Oilers forward Evander Kane is making progress toward his return and was skating for the first time since having an injury in last year's Stanley Cup Final.
Evander Kane underwent a surgery to address a lingering knee issue that delayed his recovery from prior abdominal surgery and he appears to try to accelerate his return to the lineup.
Kane shared a photo on social media of himself taking the ice in Edmonton which is signaling a significant step in his rehabilitation.
After months of uncertainty regarding his recovery timeline, this update is an encouraging sign for Oilers fans and while there's no official timeline for his return, resuming ice activities is important for Kane's chances of playing this season.
In addition to his recovery, Kane has started into a new business and he recently announced a subscription-based service on Instagram that is offering fans behind-the-scenes access to his life which is including moments with his family and insights into his time with the Oilers.
For Oilers fans, the focus remains on Evander Kane's eventual return to the lineup since he is known for his ability to score important goal and right now, the Oilers need this kind of firepower.
Evander Kane return would be a significant help for the Oilers lineup as they push for playoff success and his presence on the ice brings an edge that few players can match.
Until then, all the fans can stay connected with Evander Kane through his ventures, all while awaiting his return on ice and his next appearance in an Edmonton Oilers jersey.
Who knows, maybe in playoffs!
