Patrick Kane Returns To Chicago - DET@CHI Best Bet
Patrick Kane and the Detroit Red Wings will be in Chicago tonight. This will be Kane's first time since squaring off with the Blackhawks since his departure. Let's talk about the best way to bet it...
The Chicago Blackhawks are one of the original six NHL teams, they have been around since 1926 and Patrick Kane finished his Blackhawk career in second place on their all-time franchise points list with 1,225 points in 1,161 games played. This is the team that drafted Patrick Kane who is widely regarded as one of the best American-born players to ever play in the NHL.
Kane spent 16 years with the Blackhawks and won three Stanley Cups in 2010, 2013 and 2015. This is going to be an emotional day for Kane, there will 100% be a tribute of some kind and I think Kane will be looking to put on a show for the fans who still love him in Chicago.
Patrick Kane Over 2.5 Shots On Goal
Kane has a higher hit rate this season at home but has still covered this line in 64% of games on the road. With the Red Wings being at the United Center I am going to guess Kane is going to feel right at home. Over Kane’s sixteen-year career, he has played 602 regular season home games, with 582 of them being played in this building.
For Kane's career, he is averaging 3.44 shots per game at home, yes he’s not at home anymore but 97% of those home games were played on this ice surface. Kane has also covered this line in three straight games and two of three on no-days rest this season.
Patrick Kane Over 0.5 Point
Over Kane’s 14 years with the Blackhawks, he averaged 1.05 points per game and in his 602 career home games, he is averaging 1.09 points, again the Red Wings are not at home tonight but Kane might as well be.
Kane has a point in seven straight games and has 10 points in those seven games. He also has points in four straight and seven of his last 10 on the road.
The Blackhawks are allowing the fourth most goals per game on the year and the most expected goals per game over their last 10 games. Kane has points in two of three games on no-days rest this season, even though he played last night, he’s going to come out and try and put on a show tonight.
