Kane assisted on Jonathan Toews' game-winning goal in Saturday's 1-0 overtime win against the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
It was Kane's eleventh point of the season, which is good for fourth in the NHL. He has five points in his last three games after being held scoreless in two straight losses. This isn't anything new for Kane; he's going to score in bunches and disappear at times during the regular season. Sometimes you need to live and die him, but more often than not, he's going to light up the scoresheet.

Kane scored what turned out to be the game-winning goal on the power play and dished out two helpers (one of those on the power play as well) in a win over the Panthers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Is he playing with a vengeance or what? Kane's racked up 10 points in seven games so far, making him one of just a small handful of NHLers to have cracked double digits already. Stardom is always expected of Kane, but the chip on his shoulder has given him some extra oomph.

Kane scored with the net empty in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Kane dazzled the home crowd by splitting a maze of defenders with a number of slick dekes in the process of netting his fourth goal of the young season. Leave it to Kane to create a highlight out of an empty-net opportunity. He's been held without a point in two of six games this season but still has seven points total.

Kane scored his third goal of the season, had two assists and fired seven shots on goal in Saturday's win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Kane has come out of the gate guns blazing, forming a deadly duo with newcomer Artemi Panarin. While he's only played three games, Kane is already leading the NHL with six points and an impressive 17 shots on goal. The 26-year-old has built off his 23-point performance in the postseason and is leading the offensive charge in Chicago right now.

Kane scored tow goals, including a power-play game-winner, against the Islanders on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Right now, Kane is on the ice, and as long as that is the case, he is one of the preeminent goal scorers in the NHL.

Kane got on the board in Wednesday's 3-2 opening-night loss to the Rangers, assisting on Artemi Panarin's goal in the first period.
EDGE Analysis
Despite the loss, it's encouraging to see Kane producing so early given all of the off-ice allegations that have surrounded him since August. If he really can somehow remain focused and mesh with new linemates Panarin and Artem Anisimov, look for Kane to fill the scoresheet at his usual point-per-game pace.

Head coach Joel Quenneville told reporters that Kane will likely start Saturday in Chicago's preseason matchup with the Blues, the Chicago Sun Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite his ongoing legal troubles, Kane has fully participated in Chicago's training camp, and is expected to suit up for his second exhibition of camp on Saturday against the Blues. Kane reportedly hasn't been overtly distracted by his off-ice issues. Head coach Joel Quenneville told reporters, "I've got to commend him, his approach has been very businesslike. He's trying to get his game in order, like a lot of guys are." Kane tallied a single assist in his first preseason game action Tuesday against the Red Wings.

An attorney for the woman alleging that Kane sexually assaulted her in early August said Wednesday that DNA evidence in the case was tampered with, Jared S. Hopkins of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The accuser's attorney, Thomas J. Eoannou, had scheduled a press conference in Buffalo to respond to a report that surfaced over the past weekend that suggested DNA evidence didn't confirm his client's allegations against Kane. During the conference, Eoannou claimed that the accuser's rape kit was mailed in a brown bag to her mother's doorstep, containing the accuser's name and initials from the nurse who collected evidence at the hospital. Authorities have yet to confirm Eoannou's allegations, which the lawyer called the "worst case of victim blaming I've ever seen." Expect the representatives of Kane, who has yet to be charged for any crime in connection with the sexual assault investigation, to respond to Eoannou's claims in the coming days. Kane continues to practice with the Blackhawks and made his preseason debut Tuesday night, but it doesn't appear that a resolution to the allegations will be reached in the near future.

DNA evidence does not confirm a woman's allegations that Kane raped her, according to sources familiar with the case, the Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The lack of DNA evidence does not exonerate Kane, who has not been charged with any crime, and the investigation continues.

The Blackhawks confirmed that Kane is expected to attend training camp, Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the details of Kane's court case still shrouded in mystery, the Blackhawks seem to think that he'll be available and expect him to attend their training camp. While a lot can happen on a legal front between now and the start of the season, Kane on the Blackhawks gives them the best chance to return to the Stanley Cup.
