Patrick Kane Making History
Although Patrick Kane is playing with a dark cloud over his head he has found his groove by
setting a franchise record 25 straight games recording a point. Kane still feeling the pressure
from rape allegations has escaped and is playing at a whole new level. Kane also set the record
for a point streak from an American born player. Kane, as he has done in his career, continues to
get it done against players that are a lot taller than he is. Kane may have the best hands in the
league and the way he handles the puck can mesmerize even the casual fan. The line of
Anisimov, Kane and Panarin has been nearly impossible to stop and has contributed to most of
the goals the Hawks have scored during this impressive streak. If Kane can continue this steak he
can challenge “The Great One” Wayne Gretzky’s streak of 51 straight games with a point. If
Kane’s 25 game streak is impressive so far then Gretzky’s 51 game streak is other worldly. If
Kane can continue playing at this level than anything is possible.
