According to Bob Stauffer, the Oilers colour commentator on the radio, head coach Kris Knoblauch has announced Kane is a scratch tonight; take a look.
Kane, 32, has put up pretty consistent numbers with that of his career this year, in 67 games he has scored 21 goals and added 18 assists for a total of 39 points.
Both players are notorious for being fiery competitors, but the outward display of anger between the two players no doubt had a part to play in Kane being scratched. You sure aren't scratching your second best player.
We'll see if this goes any further than the one scratch the Oilers are calling a maintenance day. One thing is clear, Edmonton has a problem in the locker room, too many players don't see eye-to-eye.
