Edmonton Oilers forward Evander Kane underwent successful surgery this week to address a series of injuries, including two torn hip adductor muscles, two hernias, and two torn lower abdominal muscles.

Kane has been one of the top power forwards in the sport when healthy and motivated. His play down the stretch after signing with the Oilers as a free agent in January 2022 was next level. He scored 22 goals in 43 regular season games and added 13 more in 15 playoff games.
