Patrick Kane has been selected to the Central Division's All-Star team and will be the lone Blackhawks representative when the NHL's top stars collide on Jan. 26 in San Jose. It's his fifth consecutive appearance and eighth of his career.
In 41 games this season, Kane has 50 points (22 goals, 28 assists) and is on pace to crack the 100-point mark for the second time in his NHL career. His personal best is 106 points set in 2015-16 when he won the Art Ross Trophy as the league's top scorer and Hart Trophy as MVP.
Kane is coming off a week in which he was named the NHL's first star by recording back-to-back three-point outings, including his fifth career regular-season hat trick.
