Today, former Chicago Blackhawks forwards Daniel Carcillo and Jamal Mayers took part in the Chicago Pride Parade along with members of the current staff.
The Blackhawks’ Twitter account documented the team’s representation at the event, which celebrates and recognizes the LGBTQ community. There were 150 float entries, among them one for the Blackhawks, and the theme was “Viva la Vida and Stand Up, Stand Proud.”
