Hawks' Kane First American To Lead NHL In Scoring

Apr 20, 2016 5:02 PM

The Art Ross Trophy has gone to the top scorer in the NHL each season since 1947-48, but it wasn't until Sunday that an American won it.

Blackhawks star forward Patrick Kane finished the season with a career-high 106 points to outpace the Stars' Jamie Benn (89) for the title. Kane finished with career bests in goals (46) and assists (60).

"It is an honor being the first American to win the scoring title as there have been so many great hockey players from the United States in the NHL," Kane said in a statement. "I take a lot of pride in that, but I also take a lot of pride in doing it with the Chicago Blackhawks. I owe a lot to my teammates, coaches and the organization as I couldn't have done this without them. This has been a special season, but we still have a lot to accomplish as a team and I look forward to another long run in the Stanley Cup Playoffs."
