The San Jose Sharks will be without Evander Kane for Game 2 versus the Vegas Golden Knights, as the forward was suspended one game for a cross-check to the face of Pierre-Edouard Bellemare, the Department of Player Safety announced.

Here's a look at the play, which occurred in the third period of Thursday night's blowout.

Kane was assessed a five-minute major and was tossed from the game after the incident.
