The Oilers aim to achieve a rare feat in Stanley Cup Finals history by attempting a reverse sweep, following the Panthers' initial three-game lead. Despite missing Kane since Game 3, they've managed a 2-1 record during this stretch. While the power forward shows signs of improvement towards a comeback, his chances of playing tomorrow night remain slim.
Kane participated in practice this morning, skating with the extra forwards on the 'fifth' line alongside Sam Gagner and Sam Carrick. Carrick last played in Game 2 of the finals, while Gagner hasn't seen action in any playoff games during this run. It appears Kane may need to wait until a potential Game 7 for his next opportunity to return to the lineup.
