The Edmonton Oilers are set to add a key piece at an important time.
Evander Kane will make his season debut Wednesday night in Game 2 against the Los Angeles Kings after missing the entire season while recovering from knee surgery, Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch told reporters after the morning skate.
Kane, 33, posted 24 goals and 20 assists through 77 games for the Oilers last season. He also made 20 playoff appearances.
Defenceman John Klingberg, who has not played since March 27 because of a lower-body injury, will also return to the lineup for Game 2. Klingberg will replace Josh Brown.
The 32-year-old Klingberg has played just 11 games for the Oilers this year after he signed with Edmonton in January, registering one goal and 11 points. He also has dealt with hip issues in the past, for which he underwent surgery in 2023.
