NHL Tire Covers
The original version of the team’s logo which featured a crudely drawn black and white Native head printed in the circle was designed by McLaughlin’s wife, Irene Castle. This design has went through several significant changes between the years of 1926 and 1955. There was seven distinct versions of the primary logo worn on their uniforms. In the beginning of the 1955-56 season the outer circle was removed and the head started to resemble the team’s current primary logo. This logo and uniform went through subtle changes until the 1964-65 season. The basic logo and the jersey design has remained constant since then. In the year 2008 The Hockey News’ staff voted the team’s logo to be t
he best in the NHL.
The Blackhawks mascot is Tommy Hawk, who wears the Blackhawks’ four feathers on his head, along with a Blackhawks jersey and hockey pants. Tommy Hawk participates in the T-shirt toss and puck chuck at the United Center from time to time. He walks around the concourse greeting fans before and during the games. The Hawks introduced Tommy in the 2001–02 season. His oversized jersey has “WWW” William Wadsworth Wirtz and an American flag patch on it. The Hawks have had two giveaways featuring Tommy Hawk items. The first was a bobble-head doll and the second was a Mountain Dew water bottle sponsored by Tommy Hawk. It’s no wonder the Blackhawks nhl tire covers are showing up everywhere too.
“Here Come the Hawks!” is the official fight song and the introduction of the Chicago Blackhawks. The song was written by J. Swayzee and produced by the Dick Marx Orchestra and Choir in 1968 and is heard both in vocal and organ renditions during the Blackhawks home games. In late 2007 the song “Keys to the City” was released by Ministry & Co Conspirators as a gift to the Blackhawks organization. After a home-team goal is made and after a home-team win they play “Chelsea Dagger” by the Fratellis.
It is a tradition for the Blackhawks fans to applaud and cheer loudly during the singing of the national anthems. This tradition originated during a 1985 Campbell Conference playoff game at Chicago Stadium against the Edmonton Oilers.
The team has not won the Cup since 1961. This is the longest current cup drought in the NHL history. In 49 years, it is the second longest Stanley Cup drought in the NHL history, behind the New York Rangers, which ended in 1994 after 54 years.

The Sharks have kept the same pre-game celebration after they moved to the HP Pavilion in 1993. At the start of each
Sharks home game, a 17-foot open shark mouth is lowered from the rafters with the eyes flashing red and fog pouring out of the mouth. A live view of the locker room tunnel is shown on the scoreboard with the goalie leading the team, through the mouth, and onto the ice. The Sharks use one of two songs, Seek and Destroy by Metallica or Welcome to the Jungle by Guns N’ Roses as they enter the ice for their theme song.
When the Sharks are playing hard and hitting goals, the Jaws theme song is played while the fans move their hands to form a jaw moving up and down. In the crowd are all the fans wearing the sharks logo on their shirts and coats. Out in the parking lots you will find the NHL tire covers displaying the sharks logos on them. So as the Sharks play on it will be interesting to see if they come out the Big Winners.
