WATCH: Blackhawks raise 2015 Stanley Cup banner

Share

There had been an empty space hanging from the United Center rafters for weeks, but that was filled on Wednesday night.

After Niklas Hjalmarsson skated out the Stanley Cup and Jonathan Toews hoisted it one last time before the 2015-16 season officially began, the Blackhawks raised their sixth banner in franchise history, matching the amount the Chicago Bulls have on the other side.

Blackhawks play-by-play announce Pat Foley introduced this year's team one-by-one before signaling over Marian Hossa, Brent Seabrook, Duncan Keith and Corey Crawford to help clip the banner that eventually was lifted into the rafters.
