Chicago Blackhawks right winger Patrick Kane pulled out all the stops against the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday.

In the first period, Kane entered crossed the Avalanche blue line, picking up a drop pass from rookie Artemi Panarin and then weaving his way through a trio of Colorado defenders. 

Eventually returning back to the point, Kane ripped a seeing-eye shot from the point that made it’s way through traffic, off the leg of goalie Semyon Varlamov and into the bottom corner of the net.   

Go ahead, try to get the puck away from Kane. #COLvsCHIhttps://t.co/LllF43BCHm
