Edmonton Oilers Release Update on Evander Kane + Teammates' Post-Game Reactions
The Edmonton Oilers have released the following update on forward Evander Kane:
"After suffering a wrist injury early in the second period, Evander Kane is stable and has been transported to hospital for a procedure later this evening."
Kane has his wrist slashed accidentally by the skate of Patrick Maroon of the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Oilers 3-2 win Tuesday night.

In their post-game press interviews, Kane's teammates spoke about the win and overcoming the scary incident earlier in the game.
Hopefully, Evander Kane is able to play after this. A cut deep enough to the wrist could cause potential nerve/ligament damage, inhibiting the motion in his wrist. That would be worst case scenario, so hopefully the situation is more tame.
The fact that he is stable is optimistic enough, that was insanely scary.
