Kane (illness) will not take part in Wednesday's game against the Canucks, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kane was designated questionable for the contest due to the bug and it appears he will miss at least one match because of it. The team has a quick turnaround for the next contest Thursday against the Oilers, so there's a possibility Kane's absence will cost him more than one contest if a night's rest doesn't do the trick. The lineup hasn't been announced yet, but David Kampf appears to be the expected replacement.

Kane (illness) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Kane wasn't able to take part in practice Wednesday due to an illness, leaving his status for the evening's contest against Vancouver up in the air. If Kane's unable to go, Andreas Martinsen will likely draw into the lineup.

Kane scored two goals and registered an assist during Saturday's 7-3 loss to St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Kane played a role in all three Chicago goals as he had a good fantasy night even in a one sided loss. Kane's two goals gave him sole possession for the league lead in the category with 11 on the season. He extended his point streak to five games, as Kane is top-four in the league in points and off to an excellent start to the campaign.

Kane scored twice Saturday and added an assist in a 4-1 win over Columbus.

EDGE Analysis

Kane has 11 points in seven games and that includes seven goals. He's just Patrick Kane being Patrick Kane -- pretty much a lock for a point-per-game over the course of the season. You know what to do.

Kane scored a goal and added an assist along with seven shots on goal and two penalty minutes in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Kane is scorching to kick off the 2018-19 season, scoring two goals and four points with 13 shots on goal in the first two games. He's also logged a whopping 12:15 of power-play ice time in those two contests but hasn't scored a point on the man advantage yet. The 5-foot-10 winger should continue posting elite offensive numbers throughout the season.

Kane scored a goal and logged 17:09 of ice time in Thursday's 4-2 preseason loss to the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Kane scored early in the second period on a pretty play that ivolved both of his new linemates, Nick Schmaltz and Brandon Saad. If the American sniper's line is able to carry that apparent chemistry into the regular season, Kane could bounce back in a major way in 2018-19.

Kane was named captain of Team USA for the upcoming IIHF World Hockey Championship, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kane's NHL season didn't finish as he would have hoped, as the Blackhawks ended up missing the playoffs for the first time since 2008, but he won't let that disappointment stop him from continuing his hockey season into May. The American sniper had a disappointing year by his standards in 2017-18, totaling 27 goals and 76 points in 82 games, but Chicago's offense struggled as a whole, so it would hardly be surprising to see him return to his point-per-game form next campaign.

Kane set up Erik Gustafsson's goal in the third period of Friday's 4-1 loss to St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

It's been a rotten year for the Blackhawks, but Kane has still been a solid player even in what's been a down year by his lofty standards. He'll finish with his lowest points-per-game since 2012, but he's still managed to reach 75 points in an otherwise lost year in the Windy City.

Kane scored a goal and added an assist during Thursday's 6-2 win over Winnipeg.

EDGE Analysis

It's been a disappointing season for Kane and the Blackhawks. He's in danger of failing to score at a point-per-game pace for the first time since the 2011-12 campaign, and his minus-18 rating is also a career-worst mark. Still, with everything crumbling around him, Kane's 27 goals and 47 assists are solid numbers. Additionally, while there's a chance he's past his offensive prime, the 29-year-old winger should continue to be viewed as one of the most reliable scorers in the league.

Kane picked up two assists in a 5-3 loss to Buffalo on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The points extended his current scoring streak to four games and six points, including five assists. Kane has 12 points, including 10 helpers, in his last 10 games and 69 points in 72 games. Aside from his outstanding 2015-16 where he tallied 106 points, Kane has been a fairly consistent point-per-game player. This should continue for a few more seasons. Kane is 29 and certainly has several more excellent seasons in him.
