![]() Sharp would be considered a long-shot for a jersey retirement, but with four 30-goal seasons and three Stanley Cups to his credit, along with his huge popularity among fans, one cannot rule out this type of honor for the winger. Seabrook played an important role on three Stanley Cup-winning teams, was an Olympian and played 1,114 games with the Blackhawks, eclipsed only by Mikita and Keith. Much like the Chicago Cubs did with Greg Maddux and Ferguson Jenkins, it seems likely that the Blackhawks would retire Chelios and Seabrook’s jersey number together.Ĭhelios, a Chicago-native, is a Hockey Hall of Famer who is in the top-10 in assists on the all-time list and the all-time penalty minutes king for the Blackhawks as well. While the Blackhawks tend to stick to Hockey Hall of Famers when it comes to retiring jerseys (Magnuson is the only retired legend not to be enshrined in Toronto), Hjalmarsson has a good argument as a key cog in three Stanley Cup winners in Chicago. He will also in all likelihood be a Hall of Famer thanks to his two Norris Trophies and his 2015 Conn Smythe Trophy, so that will punch his ticket into Blackhawks immortality. In addition to his three Stanley Cups, Keith is second on the Blackhawks in games played at 1,192, sixth in assists with 520, and 10th in career points with 625. While Keith is still playing for the Edmonton Oilers, it’s a foregone conclusion that his number will be retired as one of, if not the best, defensemen to ever play for the Blackhawks. ![]() White Sox' Garrett Crochet Returns to MLB Team
