Detroit Red Wings forward Patrick Kane sustained a lower-body injury during the first period of Sunday's contest versus the Toronto Maple Leafs and is unable to return, the team announced.

Kane's final shift included an awkward collision with Pontus Holmberg near Detroit's net.

Kane entered the contest with 16 points in 18 games after signing a one-year, $2.75-million contract with the Red Wings in November.

The 35-year-old winger had hip resurfacing surgery in the offseason, forcing him to miss the beginning of the 2023-24 campaign as a free agent.
