Kane will miss 4-6 weeks with an MCL injury; does not need surgery.

Kane will miss at least one month with an MCL injury that he suffered on Saturday. His knee buckled on what looked like a harmless hit in the Sabres loss to the Devils. Kane has had a hard time staying healthy early in his NHL career and now he will be out until at least late-November.

The Jets have reportedly traded Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian and Jason Kasdorf to the Sabres for Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, Joel Armia, Brendan Lemieux and a 1st round pick.

Kane, 23, is out for the season after undergoing shoulder surgery earlier in the week. He is in the third year of a six-year deal with a $5.25M cap-hit. He is a dynamic, goal-scoring winger who will be a nice piece for the Sabres as they continue their rebuild. Kane has 109 goals and 113 assists (222 points) in 361 games in his first six seasons in the NHL. He makes for a nice keeper option, because you could see him on the wing with Connor McDavid next season.

Kane had shoulder surgery on Saturday; out 4-6 months.

Despite all the trade rumours surrounding Kane, this shoulder surgery will likely slow the rumours down. However a team that is out of the playoff race that may be interested in him, might be wise to make a move for him now. His value will be slightly lower and hey, it will help them lose games and get Connor McDavid.

Kane did not show up for the Jets game on Tuesday after a run-in with teammates.

It was originally believed that Kane was scratched from the game, but he decided to skip the game. Kane wore a track suit when the Jets players gathered that morning — a violation of team policy. Following a brief workout and stretch, Byfuglien is said to have thrown those clothes into the shower to send a message to his teammate, according to sources.That was the last the Winnipeg players saw of Kane until the team’s charter flight home. This is getting juicy, stay tuned.

Kane, who was placed on IR on Monday, took part in practice on Wednesday for the first time since being injured on December 27th. Kane is expected to be out until early February, but returning just one week into January is a positive sign that he could be back earlier. He will likely skate in a no-contact sweater for several days.
