It seems likely that Patrick Kane is staying in Hockeytown.
Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported on Sunday that there is momentum between Kane and the Detroit Red Wings on a new contract.
Kane, 35, chose to sign with the Red Wings in November 2023 as a free agent after having off-season hip surgery that threatened his career. However, he looked like his old self with the Red Wings, scoring 20 goals and 47 points in 50 games.
He spent the first 17 years of his career with the Chicago Blackhawks, winning three Stanley Cups with the team in 2010, 2013 and 2015. He’s considered to be one of the greatest American-born players of all time and in 2017 was selected as one of the NHL’s 100 greatest players.
