We’re still 63 days away from the official start of the Chicago Blackhawks Centennial Season, but that didn’t stop the organization from dropping its 2025-26 promotional schedule on Tuesday.
The Blackhawks will divide their season into four “chapters”:
- Chapter One: The Originals
- Chapter Two: The Madhouse
- Chapter Three: The Banner Years
- Chapter Four: The Next Originals
Chapter One: The Originals
This chapter “will spotlight the visionary players and leaders whose ingenuity and willingness to challenge convention established the Blackhawks as not just participants in hockey history, but as architects who shaped its very foundations.”
- October 17 vs. Vancouver: Stan Mikita Bobblehead (first 8,000 fans)
- November 15 vs. Toronto: The Originals Centennial Celebration Night and Tony Esposito Bobblehead (first 8,000 fans)
“The Originals” will honor the Blackhawks of the 1960s and before.
Chapter Two: The Madhouse
Chapter Two “will resurrect the distinctive traditions born within those hallowed walls that continue to define the authentic Blackhawks experience today.”
- November 23 vs. Colorado: Denis Savard Bobblehead (first 8,000 fans)
