Since November of 2023, however, the chat surrounding this matchup has revolved around Patrick Kane who now plays for the Wings after his legendary tenure with the Hawks. He is always going to get attention before and after these games which is warranted considering he is one of the greatest to ever put on a Chicago sweater in any sport.

Kane knows Toews wouldn't have an easy time integrating back into the league after two years away. But he pitched for the Hawks to bring Toews back, as unlikely as that is in reality.

Many great players have come through the Chicago Blackhawks organization over the years. With that said, it’s clear that Patrick Kane is right there at the top of the list. Kane is currently with the Detroit Red Wings at 36 years old and is still an incredibly entertaining player.
