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 Jocelyn Thibault. Next up:
Stan Mikita
Stan Mikita played 22 years in the National Hockey League – nearly 1,400 regular season games, and every one of those games as a Blackhawk. The native of what is now Slovakia, Miktia played parts of 4 decades for the Hawks, from 1958 to 1980, and won the Stanley Cup in 1961. Mikita remains the Hawks all-time leader in games played, points and assists. The Hawks retired his number 21. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1983. Mikita passed away in 2018.
