Troy Brouwer has decided to hang the skates up. Troy had a fantastic career with the Chicago Blackhawks after being their 214th selection in the 2004 NHL draft.

Troy won the Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2010. during this run, he would notch four goals and four assists, totaling 8 points.

Heart and soul are what he brought on a nightly basis. Congrats, Troy, on your 14 year NHL career and best wishes to whatever the rest of life brings you. once a Blackhawk, always a Blackhawk.
