In the first intermission of game five against the LA Kings, the Sportsnet panel revealed that Kane is battling an injury and will continue to play through it. They seemed to want to say more, but couldn't. The panel even chuckled about the injury as Kane continued to produce results during the first period of the game and scored a goal.
It remains to be seen whether this injury will continue to affect Kane's role or keep him out of the lineup. Meanwhile, the Oilers are preparing for game six in Los Angeles on April 29th, with the start time to be determined. Check out the broadcast video below:
