Kane sets record with point in 19 straight games

LOS ANGELES -- Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane has a point in his 19th consecutive game to set a new NHL record for the longest points streak by a U.S.-born player.

Kane scored a power-play goal midway through the first period of the Blackhawks' road trip finale against the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday night.

Kane's 14th goal of the season broke his three-way tie with Eddie Olczyk and Phil Kessel, who both had 18-game scoring streaks. The streak is the longest of Kane's career and the second-longest in Blackhawks history, tying a streak by Denis Savard 30 years ago.
