Patrick Kane drops major hint on social media regarding his future

Detroit Red Wings forward Patrick Kane sounded non-committal during his end of season media remarks last week, though he didn't shut the door altogether on a potential return to the Red Wings for next season.

A few moments ago, he shared a message on his social media account expressing gratitude to the Red Wings and their fans for the warm welcome extended to him and his family upon joining the team. Intriguingly, he concluded his message with a cryptic line.

He wrote the following:

"Thank you Red Wings, my teammates, coaches and all the fans of Hockey Town for welcoming me and my family with open arms this season. This past year gave us memories we'll never forget. The work doesn't stop. #LGRW"

"The work doesn't stop" - could this mean that he intends on running it back with the Red Wings?

After scoring 20 goals with 27 assists in the 50 games that he suited up wearing the Winged Wheel, he can become a free agent once the calendar turns to July.
