Kane (upper body) will miss Monday's game against the Senators, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
EDGE Analysis
After missing Monday's morning skate, Kane didn't join the Canucks on the ice for warmups and will miss his second game across Vancouver's last four matchups. In his absence, Max Sasson will take his place on the third line. If he can practice over the coming days, Kane's next chance to return to action is Thursday against the Predators.

Kane will be a game-time decision for Monday's game versus the Senators for an undisclosed injury, Randip Janda of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kane missed the Canucks morning skate due to his undisclosed injury. If the veteran winger is unable to play Monday, waiver pickup Curtis Douglas will likely make his Canucks' debut. In 61 games this year, Kane has generated only 11 goals, which would be his lowest total since 2014-15 if he doesn't start scoring more.

Kane (illness) will not be in action against Chicago on Friday, Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kane will miss his second straight game due to his illness, though it's possible he's also being held out for roster management purposes. In 59 games this year, the veteran winger has notched 11 goals and 16 assists, including six power-play points. With Kane out, recent call-up Ty Mueller could make his 2025-26 season debut.

Kane (illness) won't suit up versus the Hurricanes on Wednesday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kane is under the weather and didn't take the ice for warmups. His absence could also unofficially help from a trade-protection standpoint, as Kane's name has surfaced in rumors. However, no deal is imminent. The 34-year-old has 27 points in 59 games this season. If he remains with the Canucks, he can be considered day-to-day heading into Friday's game against the Blackhawks.

Kane scored a goal in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has scored in two of the Canucks' three games since the break while also tallying nine shots over that span. The Canucks have one of the worst offenses in the league, but Kane has been holding his own. He has 11 goals and 27 points so far across 59 contests. Although he's not a player that will make or break your fantasy team, he is servicable in certain formats thanks in part to his 145 shots, 78 PIM and 98 hits.
