What to Watch

1. No Kane, no gain?

Although Evander Kane was held out the last few games prior to the deadline, tonight’s game will be the Sabres’ first since trading him to San Jose earlier this week. Love him or hate him, Kane was a huge offensive piece for Buffalo. Behind the injured Jack Eichel (53 points) and Ryan O’Reilly (45 points), Kane was third in scoring on the team, with 20 goals and as many assists.
