At least Andrew Ladd knows what to expect with his latest rehab efforts.
And the left wing is still “optimistic” he will be ready for the start of the Islanders’ training camp in September after undergoing surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee suffered on March 24.
But there are no guarantees Ladd will be healthy for the start of 2019-20, considering he also missed 44 games from Nov. 15-Feb. 23 with an injured right knee.
“I guess you never know, especially with these,” Ladd told Newsday on Monday as the Islanders conducted their exit interviews at East Meadow.
