Kane is expected to earn $1 million over the remainder of the season, Seravalli reported.
The 30-year-old had his contract terminated by the Sharks after he violated the AHL's COVID-19 protocol and breached his NHL player contract, according to an official statement. The violation reportedly centered around Kane traveling over the U.S./Canada border to Vancouver while still in COVID-19 protocol.
The NHL announced it couldn't find sufficient evidence that Kane "knowingly made misrepresentations regarding his COVID-19 status or test results in connection with his international travel."

Kane began the season with a 21-game suspension related to his reported use of a false COVID-19 vaccination card. After his suspension, he was assigned to the Barracuda and played five games before going on the COVID-19 list in late December.

The Sharks formally released Kane on Jan. 9, although the NHLPA filed a grievance on Kane's behalf over the situation.
The Oilers are four points behind the Sharks for fifth place in the Pacific Division, and it remains to be seen how Kane will fit into the team. Oilers star Connor McDavid was asked about Kane potentially joining the team earlier this month, and recognized the talent of the former first-round draft pick.
"Truthfully, I don't think that's a bridge we really need to cross until something is more official," McDavid said. "Right now, it's all speculation. Obviously, Evander is an amazing player and he's had lots of success over the last couple of years, and whatever else is going on, it's not something I look into much."
Kane could make his return to SAP Center with the Oilers on Feb. 14 when Edmonton visits the Sharks.
