Number 88 finished the evening with a goal and an assist.
“I’m feeling a lot of emotions right now,” Kane said immediately after the game, according to the NHL website. To score that goal, to be here again, to be on a different team.
“It's so special. With this tribute, expect nothing less from the Blackhawks. I don't know if I did enough laps [de patinoire] or too many revolutions. The guys told me to do another one. There were some who wanted to see four. I only did three. It was great.”
And Kane had a message for Chicago fans.
“I'm just trying to show the fans that in the end they will always have my heart,” he confessed. It was a special 16-17 years. It was great.”
