Patrick Kane bursted onto the scene in the 2007-08 season where he recorded 21 goals, 72 points in 82 games, winning himself the Calder Memorial Trophy.

Kane was drafted by the Hawks after an unbelievable season in the Ontario Hockey League where he put up godly numbers, 62 goals, 145 points in 58 games. These incredible stats just happened to make him the 1st overall pick.

Recently Kane also passed Blackhawks Legend Denis Savard for 2nd all time on the Blackhawks in assists with 721 and ranks 3rd on the all time points list for the Hawks.

Gone are the days of the dynasty. We saw the Hawks dominate the playoffs, winning 3 cups in 6 years, but since winning the cup in 2015 they've only played in 20 playoff games since, missing the playoffs in 3 seasons and soon to be a 4th.

It would be surprising if a player of Kane's caliber would want to suffer through a rebuild.
