I hope the shine will be worn off on him and this season is more of the same for the Oilers

It isn't being talked about as much as it should, but there is a pretty big chance that Kane will never be the same player again. He has significant nerve and tendon damage. It was reported not that long ago that he still doesn't have feeling in the hand. There is still lots of time before he is expected back and maybe he can overcome it, but even right after the injury, some medical professionals thought it could be career altering or even career ending.
