In the wake of the tragic accident on Friday night, the Chicago Blackhawks and Winnipeg Jets will honor the Humboldt Broncos on Saturday evening in the regular season finale.
The Blackhawks and @NHLJets will honor the Humboldt Broncos by wearing "BRONCOS" on the back of their jerseys in place of name plates tonight. Also, the #Blackhawks will match a $25,000 donation from both the Jets and @NHL to The Humboldt Broncos Hockey Club. #PrayersForHumboldt

The Rockford IceHogs will also make a donation honoring the 14 lost lives on Saturday.
Part of pro hockey culture is "money on the board" where players wager an amount of money on each game to be donated to a team fund for events throughout the year. For tonight's game the @goicehogs will donate this money to the families of the Humboldt Broncos to show our support

Very nice tribute.
Who ever is in charge of the Hawks P.P needs to be fired . Whoever thought it`s a good idea to make 82 a forward needs to be fired .Sad end to a sad year in so many ways .
Nice tribute ,very classy .
