Evander Kane eyes 2025 return to Edmonton Oilers after successful surgery

Edmonton Oilers’ forward Evander Kane had successful abdominal surgery last Friday in New York and is expected to take a minimum of five to six months to recover.

Kane, who turns 34 next month, had surgery to repair both abductors, two hernias and two abdominal tears.

Kane will undergo rehabilitation in Edmonton under the supervision of the Oilers’ medical staff.

He registered 44 points (including 24 goals) in 77 games during the regular season and added eight points (including four goals) in 20 playoff games.
