DENIS SAVARD – CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS – NHL ORIGINAL SIX: TEAM LEADERS – 2019 $25 1.5 OZ FINE SILVER COIN – ROYAL CANADIAN MINT
Your coin is an official licensed product of both the NHL® and the Hockey Hall of Fame!
During his 13 seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks (1980-90, 1994-97), Denis Savard electrified fans with his speed, agility and offensive flair, including a famous “Spin-o-rama” move. This instinctive playmaker helped revive the franchise in the 1980s, stickhandling through entire teams on his way to becoming one of the most prolific centres in Blackhawks history. After setting a team record for most points scored by a rookie, Savard crossed the 100-point threshold five times as a Blackhawk, including a career-high 131 points in the 1987-88 season. He was named co-captain the following season, when the team reached the Campbell Conference Final. And while his name is etched on the Stanley Cup®as a member of another Original Six team, Savard finished his NHL playing career in the city where it all began, in Chicago, where Number 18 proudly hangs from the rafters. Inducted in the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2000, Denis Savard is one of six NHL stars featured in this rectangular tribute to some of the legendary Canadian captains of an Original Six team.
The Original Six™: Chicago Blackhawks
Established in 1926, the Chicago Blackhawks (or “Black Hawks” until 1986) won their first of six Stanley Cup championships in 1934. A third Cup in 1961 marked an Original Six-era resurgence, which culminated in a first-place finish in the last season before the NHL’s expansion in 1967. The Blackhawks then embarked on the second-longest playoff streak in NHL history, with 28 consecutive post-seasons appearances between 1969 and 1997—including five Conference Final during Denis Savard’s time as a Blackhawk.

Did you know…
- Born in Pointe-Gatineau, Que., Denis Savard was drafted third overall in the 1980 NHL Entry Draft. He played 13 of his 17 NHL seasons in Chicago and is the team’s third all-time scoring leader.
- In his second NHL season, Savard became only the second Blackhawk to ever score more than 100 points in one season.
- In 1986, he tied the NHL record for fastest goal scored after the start of a period: 4 seconds.
- Although he wasn’t the first to complete a “spin-o-rama” move, Savard is famously associated with it. He would switch the puck to his backhand and spin 360 degrees around an opposing defenceman before quickly firing on the goaltender.
- Savard retired as a Blackhawk after the 1996-97 season with a point total of 1,338 in 1,196 NHL games. He served as coach from 2006-2008 and continues to be a team ambassador.
