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  Dave Manson. Next up:

Today we’re profiling the great Troy Murray, a third-round pick by the Blackhawks in 1980 who spent 12 of his 15 NHL seasons in Chicago. His best year came in 1986, when he posted a career-high 99 points and won the Selke Trophy as the league’s top defensive forward. After retiring, Troy joined the Blackhawks’ TV broadcast before transitioning to radio, where he’s been the color commentator for nearly two decades.
