"When you think of USA Hockey, he's one of the first players that comes to mind, if not the first player," fellow American Jack Eichel said. "Such a great representation of USA Hockey and us Americans - something for a lot of the guys that came after him to strive to be, myself included." Detroit Red Wings right wing Patrick Kane acknowledges the fans after recording his 1,375th point to break the NHL record for points by a player born in the United States, Jan. 29.
