Kane (coach's decision) won't play Sunday versus Ottawa, per Claire Hanna of TSN.
EDGE Analysis
Kane will get Sunday's game off for maintenance after picking up an assist and logging 15:21 of ice time in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Toronto. He has collected 21 goals, 39 points, 198 shots on net, 72 PIM and 217 hits across 67 outings this season. Derek Ryan will probably draw into the lineup versus the Senators because of Kane's absence.

Kane notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Kane set up Corey Perry's third-period tally. With just four assists over 11 games in March, Kane continues to be more of a supporting player on offense. The 32-year-old power forward has 39 points, 198 shots on net, 217 hits, 72 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 67 appearances. Just seven of his points have come on the power play.

Kane recorded an assist in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has three assists over his last six games, but that's all of his offense during a 12-game goal drought. The winger is competing with trade-deadline acquisition Adam Henrique for a top-six job. Kane is at 38 points, 187 shots on net, 206 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 63 appearances. That production plays in fantasy formats that value toughness, but his offense may not be steady if he routinely ends up on the third line.

Kane provided a power-play assist and four hits in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has a helper in two of the last three games following a six-game slump. The 32-year-old winger is a player that could be negatively impacted by the Oilers' trade-deadline moves -- Adam Henrique was on the second line Thursday, though Kane had more ice time with 17:56. Being in a top-six role is critical for scoring success with the Oilers, so that positional battle will be one to watch down the stretch. Kane has 37 points, 182 shots on net, 202 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 60 appearances.

Kane notched an assist, five shots on goal and five hits in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Kane helped out on Ryan McLeod's tally late in the second period. The assist snapped a six-game point drought for Kane, who had six goals over 15 outings since his last helper. The winger's offense has been streaky at best in 2023-24, but he remains in a middle-six role. He's at 36 points, 181 shots on net, 195 hits, 70 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 58 appearances.

Kane scored twice in Monday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
The pair of goals brings Kane to 21 goals and 35 points through 51 games this season. It's a solid total, but Kane's offensive production has been hard to predict. He hasn't had points in back-to-back games since November.

Kane scored a goal on four shots and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has four goals over his last four games. The 32-year-old winger's brief drop to the third line appears to be over -- he's regularly been on the second line since the Oilers' schedule resumed after the All-Star break. Kane is up to 19 tallies, 33 points, 149 shots on net, 155 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 48 appearances this season.

Kane recorded a hat trick, seven shots on goal and a plus-4 rating in Friday's 5-3 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Kane answered the Ducks' first two goals and then added an empty-netter to seal the Oilers' comeback win. Prior to Friday, Kane had gone three games without a point. The 32-year-old winger has seen mostly second-line usage lately, though that's not a bad assignment when Leon Draisaitl is centering his own line rather than playing alongside Connor McDavid. For the season, Kane has 18 goals, 32 points, 142 shots on net, 145 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 46 appearances.

Kane scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has five points over his last five games, though his tally Tuesday was his first in nine outings in January. That third-period marker stood as the game-winner, his third such goal out of 15 tallies for the year. The winger is up to 29 points, 129 shots on net, 132 hits, 54 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 42 appearances as a solid top-six winger.

Kane notched two assists, two shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Kane entered Thursday with a hand injury, but he was able to play and did well on the second line. The 32-year-old had a hand in both of Warren Foegele's second-period tallies as the Oilers erased an early 2-0 deficit. Kane has gone seven games without a goal and has just three assists in that span, but he spent some of that time on the third line. The winger has 27 points, 122 shots on net, 127 hits, 52 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 40 appearances, numbers mostly in line with his performance over 41 contests in 2022-23.
