BUFFALO -- Buffalo-born Patrick Kane contributed heavily to this afternoon's victory of the Chicago Blackhawks over the hometown Buffalo Sabres, tying the game with seconds left and then scoring the lone shootout goal.
Chigago got on the board first with a Dennis Rasmussen goal at 6:04, assisted by Michal Rozsival.
Cody Franson tied it for the Sabres at 6:37 of the second period with a tip-in goal, assisted by Jack Eichel and Evander Kane.
Ryan O'Reilly put the Sabres in the lead at 16:40 of the third period, assisted by Sam Reinhart and Jake McCabe. Kane tied the game for the Hawks with 34 seconds remaining in the third period on a 5-on-3 power play. Artemi Panarin and Duncan Keith assisted.
Kane's shootout goal followed misses by Sabres shooters Ryan O'Reilly and Tyler Ennis, as well as Blackhawks forward Jonathan Toews. Zemgus Girgensons could have tied it for the Sabres but didn't get the puck past Chicago netminder Corey Crawford.
Sabres goaltender Chad Johnson stopped 26 of 28 shots during the game, including two in the 5-minute overtime period.
The Sabres don't play again until next Saturday when they will face the Boston Bruins in Boston.
