Patrick Kane Reveals his Intentions of Being Teammates with Auston Matthews
It's extremely rare when we are graced with generational talents in hockey, but the United States has been blessed with three throughout the past two decades. Could you imagine watching them all play on the same team?
The Future of Patrick Kane with USA Hockey
It's terribly unfortunate that the NHL and Gary Bettman haven't been able to figure out the Olympic hockey situation because fans would've savoured the opportunity to watch Auston Matthews and Jack Hughes join forces with the legendary Patrick Kane.
2026 marks the next chance for a like this to unite on the ice, a year when Kane will be 37 years old. He's recently shared his thoughts on Auston Matthews and the idea of playing on the same team as him one day:
"We stay in touch throughout the season and got a lot of respect for him as a player, how good he is at scoring goals, his shot, just his overall game,"
"He's become one of the best players in the league, so would've been huge to have that type of player on the U.S. team and maybe get a chance to play with him as well. Hopefully, we can get a chance to play together in the future, another big tournament, and have that opportunity."
"I just think in general, for USA Hockey, we would've put together a pretty competitive team, and that's disappointing,"
"I don't think that'll change four years from now, but would've been fun to have that opportunity and welcome the next generation of USA hockey players and be able to be part of that."

Kane definitely understands that his days as a superstar hockey force are numbered and 2026 may be his last opportunity to play Olympic hockey. Can he maintain his form until then?
