REPORT: PATRICK KANE MAKES STATEMENT ABOUT KIRBY DACH THAT MAKES THE BLACKHAWKS LOOK AWFUL
BY RYAN
So far this season, Dach already had 17 points in 20 games, putting him on pace to blow past his previous career highs.
Today at 2pm the Montreal Canadiens play the Chicago Blackhawks, which will be the first time Dach gets to play his former team.
Dach's former teammate Patrick Kane had nothing but great things to say about the young star and even throws a little shot at the coaching staff for how they employed the top prospect:
It's tough coming into the league at 18-19 as the third overall pick. The expectations are high. When you're playing on a fourth line, you don't play as much as you should. He showed a lot of potential, but was in a tough role.
Patrick Kane sur Kirby Dach :
« C'est dur d'arriver dans la ligue à 18-19 ans, comme 3e choix au total. Les attentes sont élevées. Quand tu joues sur un 4e trio, tu ne joues pas autant que tu le devrais. Il montrait beaucoup de potentiel, mais était dans un rôle difficile.»— Patrick Friolet (@PFrioletRDS) November 24, 2022
Dach definitely deserved to be playing higher in the lineup during his time in Chicago, but they decided he wasn't going to be part of their future and traded him away. The Montreal Canadiens are now reaping the benefits of the Blackhawks mistakes.
