NHL Issues Statement on Kane's Historic Achievement

In a big announcement, the NHL recognized the amazing accomplishment of Detroit Red Wings forward Patrick Kane, confirming his status as one of the greatest American-born players in league history.

During Tuesday night's game against the Edmonton Oilers, Kane showed his skill and impact on the ice. His goal in the second period not only helped in the game but also marked a significant moment in his career.

With this goal, Kane got his second point of the night, something he has done an impressive 333 times during his time in the NHL. This milestone put him in second place among American players for the most multi-point games, passing Jeremy Roenick. Now, he's just behind Mike Modano, who has 358 multi-point games.

"Patrick Kane scored for his second point of the night and climbed an all-time NHL list among U.S.-born players in the process."

Kane's journey to this milestone has been remarkable. Since joining the Red Wings earlier this season, he has become a key player on the team, showing his talent and leadership.

His decision to sign with the Red Wings in November has proven to be a smart move, as he continues to make big contributions to the team's success in hopes for another shot at a Stanley Cup.
