Ready To Go
According to an interview done by Kane he says he is ready to get back on the ice for the upcoming season.
There's still some numbness and all, but I have full mobility. I feel good on the ice.
Kane sounds ready to go for the upcoming season. Even with some numbness, he says he is feeling good on the ice. He will be a key part of the Edmonton Oilers offense for the upcoming season.
