05/16/2013 13:41 Hawks' Kane Unfazed By Goal Slump In Playoffs
Kane is not worried about his postseason drought that has him only scoring one goal in the last 18 playoff games, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.While he has only lit the lamp once since he got the game-winner in the 2010 Stanley Cup Finals, Kane has 14 assists in those 18 games including five helpers against the Wild in the first round.
Last year was by far the most disappointing season for Patrick Kane in his five-year career. Not only did his on-ice production slip -- he only produced 23 goals and 43 asssists, seven fewer points than in 2019-10 -- but his off-ice antics became an issue, too. Trade rumors continue to swirl, but the Hawks would be crazy to ship out a 24-year-old, point-per-game guy. Still, the 2012-13 season will be his most important one for the Hawks and he'll need to show the team he's more than just an impulsive frat boy. We think he'll feel like he has something to prove and that will bring him a 30-goal, 75-point seaso. And a major rebound on the power play. (Updated 8/14/12)
