The real reason why Patrick Kane received the nickname showtime
Patrick Kane's historic playoffs in Chicago continue to shine
Patrick Kane might not be in the playoffs this season but his impact on the historic stat lines continue to shine, and will clearly never grow old when it comes to the Stanley Cup playoffs.
When Kane was under 21, he truly developed his 'showtime' nickname and lived up to it each and every game, a true blessing for Blackhawks fans to be able to witness first hand.
Kane holds an NHL record for most goals scored by a 21 and under player during the first 11 games of the playoffs (since the NHL started initiating a salary cap), Kane posted a whopping 8 goals, and those 8 include a hat trick against the Vancouver Canucks in game 11 of the playoffs.
Kane's name got brought up last night as Dallas Stars rookie Wyatt Johnston put his name in the history books who's scored 5 goals in a similar span, but has still not matched showtime.
While Johnston's performances as of late has really lead the Stars to success, it'll never match showtime's skillset in Chicago!
