Superstar right wing Patrick Kane He returned to Chicago as a member of the Detroit Red Wings and was greeted with roaring cheers from Blackhawks fans.

I’m not a Chicago Blackhawks fan (though I do like the brand) and I may have more appreciation for Patrick Kane as an individual, but I’ll say it…I was intrigued by the Kane x Blackhawks connection then and I still am now.
And I think that’s the thing… the Blackhawks and Kane need to be together, that’s the only way this thing will work, and anything else (like him wearing a Detroit Red Wings jersey) is just plain weird.
