We know he was in Istanbul last night, so hopefully that appointment is tomorrow (10:25pm local time right now).
edit: Per Lavalette, the hope for his appointment is tomorrow or Thursday. His Canadian visa is a separate process that isn’t done yet, however he won’t get here in time for the games against Montreal or Ottawa anyway. And from Seravalli, “a pit stop with the Wolves” is still on the table as they play on Friday.

Oh shit! Wonder if there is still any chance he gets a game
I’m starting to think he won’t be able to play any of the regular season.
Wishing him luck
He’ll probably make his NHL debut opening night next year. Which is fine, but people will make a bigger deal of it than it really is.
