Kane will make his preseason debut Monday, either at home against Pittsburgh in a game that was postponed Saturday due to the Penguins’ travel issues, or at Buffalo in the team’s regularly scheduled game. The Red Wings (2-0) will have a split squad.

Kane was nearly a point-per-game player after signing with the Wings in November, with 47 points (20 goals, 27 assists) in 50 games.
