The Buffalo Sabres are set to receive an offensive boost.
Winger Evander Kane will play Wednesday against Ottawa after missing 11 games with cracked ribs suffered during the team's season opener.
The Sabres rank 29th in goals, scoring only 25 through 12 games, so the addition of Kane will be most welcome.
Kane has appeared in 66 games for the Sabres since being acquired in 2015, recording 20 goals and 15 assists.
