As we, at WGN Radio, prepare to welcome the Chicago Blackhawks into the “Century Club,” we are celebrating Chicago’s Original 6 hockey organization by highlighting over 100 players, coaches, executives, broadcasters and personalities that have been a part of Blackhawks’ 100-year history. Every weekday leading up to and through the 2025-26 season, you will hear about a different all-time Blackhawks figure in both the morning and afternoon WGN Radio sports reports, and here on WGNRadio.com. Several eras of Chicago hockey will be represented in our profiles, voiced by Dave Eanet, Andy Masur, Charlie Roumeliotis, Kevin Powell and Jack Heinrich.

We previously covered Scott Foster. Next up:

by Andy Masur

Harvey Wittenberg was a longtime fixture with the Blackhawks, serving as the Public Address voice of the team from 1961-2002. Known for his ‘monotone’ delivery, Wittenberg told you who scored the Blackhawks’ goal, who it was assisted by and at what time. He also let you know when it reached the 1-minute mark left in the period. Wittenberg still works for the Hawks as the press box announcer and contributor to the team’s website. Wittenberg has been a member of the Chicago media scene for decades.
