Three former Blackhawks have worn the #59

He also wore jersey numbers 55 and 25 while playing 6 seasons in Chicago before leaving to play with the Nashville Predators.  Krivokrasov career Blackhawks totals are 225 games played with 42 goals and 41 goals. Krivokrasov only played in 22 playoff games and he only scored 2 goals in those contests, but one of his playoff goals was an O.T winner.

2. Travis Moen was the second Blackhawk to wear #59 in his only season with Chicago in 2003-2004 where he scored 4 goals and 2 assists in 82 games played. Moen is still in the NHL calling the Montreal Canadiens home.

3. Lastly, Rob Klinkhammer played one game for the Hawks wearing #59 in 2011, but he currently is on the Phoenix Coyotes roster going into the 2013-2014 season.
