BREAKING: The Worst is Confirmed For Detroit Red Wings Patrick Kane
The worst fears have been confirmed for the Detroit Red Wings as star player Patrick Kane did not return to Sunday's game against Toronto after suffering a 'lower body injury,' specifically believed to be related to his hip.
UPDATE: Patrick Kane (lower body injury) will not return tonight.� Detroit Red Wings (@DetroitRedWings) January 15, 2024
Kane, who had recently returned to the lineup in December after recovering from hip surgery, endured a mere 1:07 of ice time before the injury occurred during the first period.
Observers noted him favoring his hip while on the bench, engaging in conversation with the team's trainer.
This setback is particularly concerning given Kane's history with hip issues.
Having made his season debut in December, he seemed to re-injure his hip in this recent incident.
The veteran winger's status will likely be updated before Wednesday's matchup with the Florida Panthers. So far this season, Kane has contributed seven goals and 16 points in 19 games, making his potential absence a significant blow for the Wings.
