The Chicago Blackhawks are celebrating the team's centennial celebration this season, and while the milestone offers the perfect opportunity to look back—management is not ignoring the future.
In June, the Chicago Blackhawks released renderings of an expansion to the team's practice rink, Fifth Third Arena. Located within walking distance of the United Center, the Blackhawks are building a true hockey destination on the West Side of Chicago.
The Blackhawks are creating a premier hockey city in Chicago.
Team officials estimated the new arena would welcome more than a million and a half guests a year.
