Red Wings' Patrick Kane: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Kane (upper body) was shifted to injured reserve by the Wings on Tuesday.
Since Kane has already missed four games due to his upper-body injury, so this latest development is unlikely to impact his return to action. Instead, the extra roster spot allowed the team to bring up William Lagesson in a corresponding move Tuesday. Prior to getting hurt, the veteran Kane was struggling to score with just one goal in his last 13 outings while adding only four helpers during that stretch.

Red Wings' Patrick Kane: Ruled out against Isles
Rotowire
Kane is dealing with an upper-body injury that will keep him out of action versus the Islanders on Monday after head coach Derek Lalonde told reporters the forward would "need another day, probably day-to-day situation," per Jonathan Mills of the Red Wings' official site.
Kane wasn't on the ice Sunday in what was deemed a maintenance day but it seems the winger is dealing with a slightly more serious issue. At this point, the veteran should probably be considered questionable to face the Flames on Wednesday. It's been a decent start to the 2024-25 campaign for Kane, as he has garnered 10 points, including five with the man advantage, in 20 outings.

Rotowire
Kane posted a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Sabres.
Kane has three assists over his last four games, but he hasn't netted a goal in that span. The 35-year-old winger is looking pretty good early on with eight points (four on the power play), 18 shots on net, four PIM and a minus-4 rating through 11 appearances. Kane and Lucas Raymond have often bounced between the first and second lines, but both play on the top power-play unit and should continue to see steady ice time.

Red Wings' Patrick Kane: Dials up two assists in OT win
Rotowire
Kane contributed two assists -- including an overtime helper on the power play -- in Saturday's 5-4 OT win over the Maple Leafs.
Kane wrapped around the net and found David Perron to put the Wings up 4-1 with 16.8 seconds to play in the first period. Kane then came through in the clutch with a soft shot that still had enough steam to be redirected by captain Dylan Larkin for the game-winning goal in overtime. Kane is up to 20 goals and 26 assists through 48 games in his debut campaign for the Red Wings. He got off to a late start to the season as he rounded out his recovery from hip surgery, but the Wings are still fighting for their playoff lives with two games to go in the regular season. There's been wide speculation that Kane, a pending unrestricted free agent, will join a new team if Detroit fails to extend its season.
