CHICAGO -- Blackhawks defenseman Brent Seabrook has played in his 1,000th NHL regular-season game.

Seabrook got the start alongside Duncan Keith for Thursday night's matchup with Winnipeg. He has appeared in 77 of Chicago's 78 games this season.

Each of the Blackhawks warmed up in Seabrook's No. 7 jersey, and the franchise recognized the defenseman during a pregame ceremony. He was presented with a commemorative silver stick, a painting and a family vacation to Disney World.

Seabrook, who turns 33 on April 20, was selected by Chicago in the first round of the 2003 draft.
