CALGARY, Alberta — The game-time decision proved to be the right decision.
Evander Kane recorded his first-career four goal game Friday, charging the Sharks to a 7-4 victory over the Calgary Flames in a Pacific Division battle loaded with playoff implications after he skipped the team’s morning practice with a lower-body tweak.
Head coach Pete DeBoer labeled Kane, who missed two shifts in Edmonton Wednesday, as a “game-time decision” Friday morning.
What a decision it wound being.
Kane didn’t waste any time to make his presence felt, scoring the game’s opening goal six minutes into the first.
