Patrick Kane Shows Up To Beer League Hockey Game And Dominates
Plenty of guys who play intramurals think they could have played D-I or even gone pro if it wasn’t for some injury or shit coach they had in high school. This delusion is common among Greeks, because we believe we’re superior beings. We tell our high school tales of sacking Blake Bortles three times in a game, or about when we put up 30 in an AAU game against Tyreke Evans. The more time passes, the more outlandish the story gets.
But what would happen if we actually got a shot at a certified stud of a professional athlete? Well, some beer league hockey players got that exact opportunity.
Patrick Kane, Chicago Blackhawk and U.S. Olympic hero, showed up to a local rink in his hometown of Buffalo, strapped on some skates, and made a mockery out of some amateurs.

From BarDown:
On Monday night, Patrick Kane joined the Piranhas at a local rink in Buffalo where they proceeded to beat down the Essex St. Pub team 13-5.
Kane finished the game with five goals and five assists, earning 10 points.
Here’s the box score.
And the scoring summary:
Lesson learned: if you ever want to be humbled, just challenge a professional athlete at their own game.
