Star forward Patrick Kane will return for a 19th season in the NHL, as the Detroit Red Wings signed him Monday to a one-year contract worth $3 million.

“Jacked up to be back! Let’s go!” Kane wrote on social media after the signing was announced.

It will be Kane’s third season with the Red Wings after he built the majority of his Hall of Fame-worthy career with the Chicago Blackhawks.

On a one-year, $4 million contract in 2024-25, Kane played in 72 games for Detroit and tallied 59 points (21 goals, 38 assists) while averaging almost 18 minutes of ice time per game.

Kane, who will turn 37 early next season, has 492 goals and 851 assists (1,343 points) in 1,302 career games with the Blackhawks (2007-23), New York Rangers (2023) and Red Wings. He won three Stanley Cups with Chicago and became the first American player to win the Hart Memorial Trophy (league MVP) or the Art Ross Trophy (leading point-scorer).

The Red Wings are making a push to end their postseason drought at nine seasons. The franchise acquired veteran goaltender John Gibson from the Anaheim Ducks during the NHL draft Saturday.
