Could Patrick Kane’s Partying be Hurting his Game, Blackhawks?
Patrick Kane likes to go out and drink. That's been well-documented, and not news to anyone. There are hundreds of pics of him out on the town debauching himself posted all over the internet. And that's his choice. He's an adult and can do whatever he wants.

Besides Vancouver Goaltender Roberto Loungo has nothing on a girl who goes out on a Friday night with the sole intention … [Read more...] about Having a Stanley Cup should help you Pick Up
Blackhawks Big 2 (Kane, Toews) Control Game 2
It was the Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane show during the Chicago Blackhawks 4-2 game 2 victory at San Jose. The Hawks' two most iconic players zipped around the ice in Silicon Valley like an Intel core i7 processor. And pretty soon, they could make the San Jose Sharks as outdated and useless as a 286 CPU. (Apologies for the tech nerd metaphors, hey, when in San Jose). Two is … [Read more...] about Blackhawks Big 2 (Kane, Toews) Control Game 2
