Ken Holland May Force Evander Kane to Miss Tonight's Game

The Edmonton Oilers organization has been hit with truly blessed news this past week that forward Evander Kane's injury recovery time was greatly sped up, and he ''was''? set to return on Tuesday night.

The one issue involving that great piece of news is that the Oilers' general manager Ken Holland has left the team with ZERO cap space, meaning when Evander Kane is activated, the Oilers will need $5.125m in cap space, and it seems as if Ken Holland is behind on things.

According to TSN's Ryan Rishaug, Oilers Evander Kane is good to, but Ken Holland's current roster does not have the cap space to welcome Evander back.

Given the cap gymnastics needed to fit him in, is its doubtful Kane plays tonight, but I believe Thursday is an excellent possibility based on where things sit right now. Things can change fast, but that's my sense on the situation.
