Patrick Kane Provides Crucial Update Regarding His Return Date

Kane had faced an unspecified injury earlier this month during a game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Recent days have seen him practicing on his own, and he even rejoined his team for a regular practice earlier this week.

In his own words, the extra break provided by the NHL All-Star game is expected to help him regain full health and make a comeback with his team.

The 35-year-old Kane, who signed a one-year, $2.75 million deal with the Red Wings in late November, has notched seven goals and 16 points in his first 19 games with the team.
