No. 61 – Riley Stillman
Stillman is the only player to ever wear No. 61 for the Blackhawks. He was acquired from the Florida Panthers in 2021, along with Henrik Borgstrom and Brett Connolly for Lucas Carlsson and Lucas Wallmark. He had three goals and 13 points in 65 games for the Blackhawks. Kyle Davidson turned Stillman into a second-round pick and Jason Dickinson in 2022.

Brett Seney has only played 11 games for the Blackhawks, scoring one goal, but he has been an invaluable member of the organization. He’s spent the last four seasons with the Rockford IceHogs, with the last two as team captain. The mentorship and leadership he’s shown to the young players on a rebuilding team is worth more than any NHL production.
No. 63 – Carl Dahlstrom
Carl Dahlstrom is the only No. 63 in team history. He was a second-round selection in 2013, with the pick acquired from the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Dave Bolland trade, and made his NHL debut in 2018. He recorded nine assists in his 49 games for the Blackhawks, while posting a plus-7 rating. He was claimed off waivers by the Winnipeg Jets just prior to the 2019-20 season.

He has since played with the Vancouver Canucks and Washington Capitals, while playing for his native Czechia at the most recent Winter Olympics.
No. 65 – Andrew Shaw
Nobody would ever confuse Andrew Shaw with the most talented or dynamic players on the ice, but you could never doubt his determination and grit. The fifth-round draft pick made a huge first impression in 2011 with a goal and a fight in his NHL debut against the Philadelphia Flyers. He played much larger than his 5’11, 180-pound frame. He did whatever it took to help the Blackhawks win. From shin-pad goals to disallowed headbutt goals to having fresh stitches when being passed the Stanley Cup, Shaw provided Blackhawks fans with a ton of memorable moments.

Michael Frolik was acquired in 2011 from the Panthers for Jack Skille. Despite once having the nickname of “Baby Jagr,” he learned how to become a defense-first forward on a deep Blackhawks team. He scored two memorable penalty shot goals in the playoffs, the first in 2011 against the Vancouver Canucks, then another in 2013 against the Detroit Red Wings. The 2013 Stanley Cup champion scored 11 goals and 34 points in 136 games.
