Patrick Kane re-signed with the Detroit Red Wings on a one-year deal. A person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press the contract is worth $4 million in salary with $2.5 million in additional incentives. The 35-year-old winger from Buffalo was nearly a point-a-game player in his first season with the Red Wings. A three-time Stanley Cup champion with Chicago, Kane is entering his 17th professional season. He has the second-most points of any U.S.-born player in NHL history.
