Blackhawks' Patrick Kane arrested: Blackhawk star winger and U.S. Olympian Patrick Kane gave the team a black eye and even caught his mother off guard early Sunday when he and cousin, James M. Kane were arrested in his hometown of Buffalo, N.Y., at 4 a.m. for allegedly assaulting a cab driver and grabbing back the $13.80 fare when the driver said he was 20 cents short of giving them change for $15.

They were going to stiff him on the tip? That's a five-minute major right there.

At least they were smart enough to take a cab assuming they were probably drunk. Being drunk is about the only way to explain that behavier.

Patrick wouldn't be drunk, would he? The lad is not yet 21 years old, the legal age for alcohol consumption in New York stae.

If this young man couldn't leave at least a $1.20 tip the blackhawks aren't paying this boy enough.

What an ugly incident. It baffles me how people can act like that.
