Patrick Kane Wins Conn Smythe Trophy

Nov 28, 2014 10:59 AM

Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane won the Conn Smythe Trophy after Chicago defeated the Boston Bruins 3-2 to win the Stanley Cup in six games on Monday night.

"I think there were a lot of guys that deserved it," Kane said just after the announcement. "I think [Corey Crawford] might have gotten snubbed, to be honest with you. It's a hell of an achievement. I think it speaks more for my team than for myself, personally, playing with great players."
