Chicago Blackhawks fans didn’t witness their favorite team win Sunday afternoon.
But they saw the next-best thing.
Detroit Red Wings forward Patrick Kane, the future Hall of Famer who won three Stanley Cups over 16 seasons in Chicago, returned to United Center for the first time since being traded last February.
After the Red Wings and Blackhawks battled to a 2–2 tie through three periods, Kane took the ice in overtime and found himself alone with the puck at mid-ice. He calmly skated past the blue line and deked out Red Wings goaltender Petr Mrazek, lighting the lamp for a game-winning goal.
A homecoming fit for a Hollywood script.
