Patrick Kane Scores OT Winner for Red Wings in Chicago Return NHL Trade Talk.
In a thrilling return to the city he started with NHL career with, Chicago Blackhawks’ legend Patrick Kane secured an overtime victory for the Detroit Red Wings at the United Center. It seemed only fitting he scored the big goal considering all the highlight-reel moments he provided the Blackhawks franchise while he was a part of it.
The atmosphere was nothing short of electric as Kane, originally drafted by the Blackhawks, scored the OT winner during his first game back in the city. A lap of appreciation and a deafening ovation from Blackhawks fans followed Kane’s triumphant return, further highlighting the significance of the moment.
Patrick Kane’s return to Chicago after being traded to the New York Rangers a year ago added a layer of emotion to an already emotional day.

Notably, both events unfold within a half-hour of each other, promising to make for a memorable day for Blackhawks fans. It was, perhaps, the brightest moment that will come in another otherwise lackluster season filled with losses as the Blackhawks go through a rebuild.
This exceptional Sunday stood out, and while Chicago fans might have preferred a win, Kane winning in overtime was the next-best option.
