Since coming to the NHL, Patrick Kane has beaten up on his hometown team in Buffalo. He plays some of his best hockey against the team he grew up watching, along with other teams including the Avalanche.
Growing up in Buffalo, I was definitely a big Pat Lafontaine fan. Joe Sakic was definitely one of my favorite players. I liked watching the Avalanche, so he and Peter Forsberg were some of the players I really watched. – Patrick Kane (USA Hockey Magazine)
It’s unknown on which team he liked better, Kane has changed his answer a few times in interviews.
