Raising Kane

From Len Ziehm at the Chicago Sun-Times,

‘’Things came pretty easy at the start,’’ Savard said Tuesday. ‘’Now teams are fighting to make the playoffs, and the games are getting tougher to play in—but he’s capable of doing that.’’

Kane’s smallish 170-pound frame may be wearing down, and the absence of center Jonathan Toews for 16 games didn’t help. They had been jelling as linemates.

‘’With Toews not being around, that made things a little tougher for him,’’ Savard said. ‘’It takes a [good] centerman to make a line, and not having Toews makes a difference. But they’ll get back to it.

‘’[Kane] has to come with a good work ethic in practice and get in the gym a little more to get stronger.’’
