The Chicago Blackhawks are asking to fans to help celebrate the legacy of Patrick Kane outside the United Center Thursday following his trade to New York this week.
Tuesday, Kane thanked fans and the organization for all their support over the years.
"There simply are no words to express my family's love and appreciation for the Blackhawks organization, my teammates, this city and the greatest fans in the world welcoming me here since being drafted in 2007," Kane said. "Thank you for giving me a chance and supporting me like your own through 1,297 games played in the most iconic sweater, including 3 Stanley Cups and thousands of memories to last a lifetime.
Kane helped Chicago put together the best stretch in franchise history, winning the Stanley Cup in 2010, 2013 and 2015. The Blackhawks also made it to the Western Conference final in 2014, losing to the Los Angeles Kings in an epic seven-game series.All the news you need to know, every day
