Kane was absent from Thursday's practice, Ed Tait of the Winnipeg Free Press reports. Kane was scratched for Tuesday's game in Vancouver after violating a team rule, so his absence from Thursday's practice suggests he might have been placed under some sort of team-imposed suspension. The Jets have declined to discuss much regarding Kane's situation, but it's clear the enigmatic winger seems to be grating on the organization. It wouldn't be a surprise if a trade is engineered prior to the deadline.
