Patrick Kane hip surgery opens door to possible New York Rangers return

New York Rangers forward Patrick Kane will be out 4-6 months after hip resurfacing surgery.

The 34 year-old forward admitted to not being 100% after the Rangers were eliminated in their fist round series against the New Jersey Devils. “I commend Jim Ramsay and the staff on getting me as ready as possible for the playoffs,” Kane said on breakup day.

Kane’s agent, Pat Brisson told Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman about the procedure and noted that his client “wants to play for a long time.”

He’s scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
