NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Detroit center Darren Helm will miss the rest of the playoffs after surgery to repair tendon damage in his right arm after being hurt in Game 1 against the Nashville Predators.
The Red Wings announced Thursday that Helm had successful surgery Wednesday night to repair the tendons.
Helm's right arm was sliced by the left skate of Nashville forward Alexander Radulov with more than 8 minutes left in the first period with the Red Wings on the penalty kill. Helm dropped his glove and skated immediately to the bench before being taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
The center missed the last 10 games of the regular season after hurting a ligament in his left knee. He is a key player on Detroit's penalty kill unit.
The Predators won Wednesday's game 3-2.
