As a part of the Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews Dynasty, the 3-time cup winners, he would be present during their tenure.
Due to a health condition, he had to retire from the team after his last season with the team in 2016-2017.
In the aftermath of his recent goodbye game in Slovakia, he acquired a new pair of skates to commemorate his time spent with the team, as well as his love and affection for the sport.
In addition, they're a complete fire. The pair of skates that he was gifted by the Chicago Blackhawks are Vapor Hyperelite skates, which have been customized with a painting of Hossa on both sides of the skates. On the one side there are variations of Hossa holding the cup in multiple situations, as a tribute to each of the times that Hossa won a cup with the Blackhawks.
As part of the back of the skates, we have included the period in which Hossa spent with the organization, along with the year in which he spent his last official year with the organization.
I am in awe of the team's generosity. What an incredible gesture!
