NHL fans and the New York Rangers will have to wait until after the Christmas break to see the return of Patrick Kane.

The 34-year-old forward, known for his impressive 16-year career and three Stanley Cup victories with the Chicago Blackhawks, recently underwent hip surgery.

Recovery is expected to take approximately four to six months, followed by a necessary period of preparation before he can hit the ice again. Despite the setback, Kane remains determined to continue playing for a long time. His agent, Pat Brisson, expressed optimism that the surgery will aid in extending Kane's illustrious career.

As an unrestricted free agent, Kane's return to the Rangers was uncertain due to financial constraints, requiring him to accept a contract below his market value.

Last season, he contributed 57 points in 73 games, showcasing his enduring skill and adding to his impressive trophy collection, which includes accolades like the Calder Trophy, Conn Smythe Trophy, Hart Trophy, and Art Ross Trophy.
