Duncan Keith and Steve Larmer headline Chicago’s centennial Hall of Fame launch, with Chelios, Hossa, Hull, Makita, Pilote and Savard shaping the discussion on who belongs in the inner circle and which numbers may eventually retire. The episode blends legacy debate with a forward look at the 2025-26 Blackhawks, led by Bedard with Burakovsky and Donato, Nazar and Terrain on the wings, and a young core pursuing top-six minutes as cap realities loom.

On the ice, the discussion maps a path for a markedly younger group: Bedard pairing with Burakovsky and Donato, Nazar flanking with Terrain and Dickinson, Reichel with Felino and Slagert, and Moore anchoring the middle with Dickinson and McKay. Laferty sits as a veteran bridge while a crop of teens and prospects eye opportunities, all framed by a roster-building mindset and the centennial pull of a storied franchise.
