Max Domi had a goal and three assists for the Blackhawks, who won their second straight following a three-game losing streak and climbed out of last place in the NHL.
The Maple Leafs had won two straight, including a 5-2 romp over the Blackhawks on Wednesday in Toronto.
Kane has been the subject of trade rumors all season as the Blackhawks try to position themselves to win the draft lottery. He had been goalless in seven games before scoring twice at Ottawa on Friday, and followed that up with his ninth three-goal game in regular-season play. He has 14 goals in 52 games.
It was the Blackhawks' eighth shot on goal, and they didn't get another until 7:57 of the second period, when Kane took a pass from Domi and beat a screened Samsonov from 20 feet. Of his gut feeling on a possible trade, Kane said, "I don't know. If I knew that, I think I'd make a decision already."
