Patrick Kane came through when the Blackhawks needed him most, as he often does, in a 3-2 shootout win over the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday afternoon.
Before sealing the victory with the lone shootout goal, Kane scored the game-tying goal on a 6-on-3 power play with 33.5 seconds remaining in regulation, becoming the first American-born player in NHL history to score 20-plus goals in each of his first nine seasons, per CSN's Christopher Kamka.
Only three other active players have accomplished that feat: Jaromir Jagr, Alex Ovechkin and Thomas Vanek.

Kane also scored his 225th career goal, tying Doug Wilson for 14th all-time in franchise history. Eric Daze is next on the list with 226 goals.
And if you're keeping track, Kane has picked up a point in each of his last two games after his 26-game point streak was snapped on Tuesday. Just 24 more to go!
