The Chicago Blackhawks are ready for a fan who made a bet on Patrick Kane re-signing with his former team to pay up. The franchise responded Thursday to a fan claiming they would get a tattoo celebrating the Hawks as the 2027 Stanley Cup champions should Kane re-sign in Chicago. The Blackhawks announced Thursday that Kane will return to Chicago on a two-year, $8 million contract. His first stint in Chicago ended when the rebuilding Hawks traded Kane to the New York Rangers in the final year of his expiring contract. After a brief stint with the Rangers, Kane underwent hip resurfacing surgery in 2023.
