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 Martin Havlat. Next up:

Today we profile the great mascot of the Chicago Blackhawks, Tommy Hawk.  Introduced in the 2001-02 season, Tommy Hawk has been entertaining fans at the United Center for over 20 seasons. Known for his unpredictable wardrobe changes and his silly pranks, you never know what he will do next. You might even think twice about leaving your seat when there is a break in the action. Tommy was named the 2023 NHL Mascot of the Year and was inducted into the Mascots Hall of Fame in 2017.
