Darren Helm lost for rest of game, maybe longer. UPDATED

Red Wings center Darren Helm's return lasted all of 3:08.

Helm left the game after getting his left wrist sliced open by Alexander Radulov's skate. Reports are saying he was taken to Vanderbilt Medical Center for "further observation."

The truth is Helm had his wrist SLICED OPEN BY A STEEL BLADE!!!!! That requires a trip to the emergency room, people. In short, that means he will need stitches at the very least, and possibly get tendons, ligaments, and/or blood vessels repaired. Mike Modano had something similar happen to him last season and he missed close to two thirds of the regular season.

Say some prayers for Helm, maybe even recite a rosary, peeps

LGRW

UPDATE: Mike Babcock has reported that Helm is still in the hospital, undergoing surgery on his forearm. Unsure of extent of the damage
