The Oilers have struggled with several injuries during the playoffs, including Evander Kane's. attempting to heal an injury to the abdomen. Sadly, Kane had to miss the last two games since it had recently gotten to be too much for him.
At points during the playoffs, Kane was unable to even sit on the Oilers bench due to the pain he was in. At this point it is better that he does not participate if he's not able to provide the physical play and scoring touch that he is known for. Game 6 goes tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.
