Detroit Red Wings head coach Todd McLellan announced the team's latest decision involving star Patrick Kane, handing bad news to Dylan Larkin and the rest of the locker room.

Tyler Motte has been cleared to play so the Detroit Red Wings will have him back against the Kings, but Patrick Kane remains out and J.T. Compher is also out

Todd McLellan voiced a very powerful comment to the players in the Detroit Red Wings locker room, including a special mention for veteran leader Patrick Kane.

No team is immune to the injury bug, including the Detroit Red Wings. It's rare for a team to go through an entire season without missing at least one player for an extended period of time. Thursday night's game against the Edmonton Oilers is the first of a four-game West Coast road trip.

The Red Wings are struggling for offense these days and the team didn't get news Thursday that'll necessarily help that matter.

The Detroit Red Wings will be without Patrick Kane when they welcome the Montreal Canadiens to Little Caesars Arena on Thursday night.

McLellan and his right-hand man, former Kings and Ducks assistant Trent Yawney, have put their imprint on the winged wheel in short order. “Our structure in all three zones (has improved), I feel like we’re just supporting the puck better,” Talbot told The Detroit News.

Red Wings coach Todd McLellan opened up about the impact Lucas Raymond has on his team after defeating the Kings.

McLellan has put his stamp on the Red Wings a month into his tenure. They’re playing faster. They’re scoring more. They’re outshooting opponents most nights because of better puck possession and a newfound shot mentality.

Veteran forward Andrew Copp said the Detroit Red Wings have a togetherness they lacked before head coach Todd McLellan was hired in late December.

The Detroit Red Wings’ injury news was mostly positive as they left town Wednesday to start their four-game road trip Thursday in Edmonton. Patrick Kane skated.

After a trio of home wins, the Red Wings will get back on the road as January ends, hoping for better results than the last road trip.
