SAN JOSE, Calif. — All eyes around the NHL are focused on the Rangers’ salary-cap situation while waiting for the seemingly inevitable Patrick Kane trade.
Kane presumably will miss the Blackhawks’ game Monday against the Ducks as he remains in Chicago, having traveled back Saturday before the Hawks’ win over the Sharks. It was just the ninth game since 2007 and the first since 2015 in which the Hawks’ lineup included neither Kane nor Jonathan Toews.
