Edmonton Journal article that talks about Kane’s hits per game going from 4.3 in October to 1.2 in January. It also talks about the practices he is sitting out and leak he is dealing with an unidentified core injury. Numbers likely would go down just from him moving to the third line, but there’s definitely smoke here, I think.
“ If you watch Kane closely, you’ll notice that he’s still having trouble getting low and digging in fast and hard in puck battles. He’s also having trouble lining up opposing players for big hits. It takes agility, speed and timing to throw a big hit. That’s evidently been thrown off by whatever injury issue he’s now facing.”

The article suggests the all-star break may help. I think we need him 95% for the playoffs. Sure hope the medical staff can get him there.
