Detroit Red Wings general manager Ken Holland announced Sunday that defenseman Niklas Kronwall will miss one-to-three weeks with a knee injury, Ansar Khan of MLive reports.

Kronwall was helped off the ice and left Saturday's game after an awkward fall in front of the Red Wings' net. Holland said an MRI showed just a "slight sprain."

The 35-year-old already missed over a month of action earlier this season with a separate knee injury.
