Would be shocked if he's ready for olympics. Week to week and you would imagine you would want to see him play an NHL game or two to make sure he's good to go which is only has 2-3 weeks for a knee sprain is unlikely.
Replacement should be between Bedard, Scheifele , Johnston. All guys are right handed offensive minded forwards that would play a top 9 RW like Point would. Bedard should be the guy, back from injury and the best PPG average of the 3 while having significantly worse linemates. Add in much improved skating and he needs to be playing in a top 6 RW role of McDavid's or Mackinnons line.
Good put Bennett or Bedard instead
