The Edmonton Oilers got a major boost in Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs as both Evander Kane and John Klingberg returned from injury — and made an immediate impact. Kane brought his signature grit and offensive spark, while Klingberg added poise and puck movement on the blue line. With both veterans back in the lineup, the Oilers looked deeper and more dangerous.
Today, Tyler and Liam broke down Kane’s impact on the lineup since returning from injury and his ability to jump right into playoff hockey and not look out of place. Plus John Klingberg rising from the ashes to play meaningful minutes for the Edmonton Oilers.
What have you thought of the two since their return?

What does everyone think of Fredrick
87% expected goals %age last game for Kane boys. He’s been fine in the defensive end
Tyler it was an awful take IN HINDSIGHT. Just own that
Tyler is only half admitting that he's wrong about Kane. Jeez, 91 has been playing great after being out for a year. He's never been an old slow Gorilla like Lucic. Kane has been a clutch performer since he's arrived in Edmonton, and seems to be maturing into a better person as well. Who hasn't done some stupid things in thier late teens and early twenties?
Thank god you ain’t a coach
Dude, Kane has saved this team. Haven’t you seen Drai or Davo make mistakes defensively? You’re out to lunch and quit reaching…
