Kane’s last shift came at 14:53 of the second.

“We have to go see how he’s doing, see if he’s all right,” forward Frank Nazar said. “I don’t know what happened, if it was in this game, wish I saw it and done something. Obviously hope he’s all right.”

Chicago coach Jeff Blashill said after the game that Kane is “going to miss the next couple of games, for sure.”

Kane has nine points (one goal, eight assists) in 15 games, second on the Blackhawks behind captain Connor Bedard with 10 points (four goals, six assists). His eight assists lead the Blackhawks. He’s averaging 18:02 of ice time this season, third among Blackhawks forwards behind Bedard (20:35) and Roman Kantserov (18:24).

“It goes without saying, he’s one of the heartbeats of this team, the guy we lean on so much, on and off the ice,” Bedard said. “The biggest thing is we just hope he’s fine and hope he’s ready to go as soon as possible. But it’s a huge loss. He’s Patrick Kane, so goes without saying and we hope he’s back as soon as possible.”

The 37-year-old is in his second stint with the Blackhawks after signing a two-year, $16 million contract ($8 million average annual value) with them on June 23. The No. 1 pick by the Blackhawks in the 2007 NHL Draft, Kane helped lead Chicago to the Stanley Cup in 2010, 2013 and 2015.

Kane has 1,409 points (509 goals, 900 assists) in 1,384 career games with the Blackhawks, New York Rangers and Detroit Red Wings.

He scored his 500th goal on Jan. 8 and broke Mike Modano’s record for points by a United States-born player with No. 1,375 on Jan. 29. Kane reached 1,400 points on April 13.

Kane got his 900th career assist on forward Anton Frondell’s first goal in the Blackhawks’ 5-4 overtime loss against the Boston Bruins on Saturday. Kane is the 21st player in NHL history and the first United States-born player to reach that milestone. He trails only Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins (1,113) in assists among active players.

“It’s a loss but again, this is the NHL so you’re going to lose guys and you have to find a way for other guys to step in,” Blashill said.
