(CHICAGO) – Patrick Kane's 1,000th career point created one big party for the Chicago Bears. Kane reached 1,000 when he picked up an assist on Brandon Saad's third period goal, and the Blackhawks beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-2 on Sunday night for their season-high fifth straight win. Kane became the 90th player in NHL history to reach the milestone with 5:46 left. The All-Star winger passed from behind the net to Ryan Carpenter in the right circle. Carpenter then fed a wide-open Saad at the left side of the net for an easy tap-in before goalie Connor Hellebuyck could slide across the crease. The 31 year old Kane got an extended ovation from the crowd of 21,487 and was mobbed by his teammates after extending his point streak to 10 games. In the midst of the celebration, Saad made sure to pick up the puck for Kane. Alex Nylander and Erik Gustafsson each had a goal and an assist for Chicago, which has climbed back into the Western Conference playoff race with an 11-4-0 run. David Kampf also scored and rookie Dominik Kubalik added an empty-netter for his 10th goal in his last seven games. Robin Lehner made 36 saves for the Blackhawks, who killed six Jets power plays. Mark Scheifele and Patrick Laine scored for Winnipeg. Hellebuyck stopped 28 shots in the Jets' fourth loss in five games.
