The 2003–04 Chicago Blackhawks season was the 78th season of operation of the Chicago Blackhawks in the National Hockey League. The Blackhawks missed the playoffs for the second consecutive season.

Offseason

Regular season

General manager Mike Smith was fired on October 24, 2003. Bob Pulford replaced Smith on an interim basis until a replacement could be found.[3]

On December 11, 2003, Mark Bell scored just 15 seconds into the overtime period to give the Blackhawks a 4–3 home win over the Detroit Red Wings.[4] The Sabres' Derek Roy would match that mark in the overtime period on March 17, 2004, in a 4–3 Buffalo road win over the Atlanta Thrashers.[5] Both goals would prove to be the fastest overtime goals scored during the 2003–04 NHL regular season.[6] In February, team captain Alexei Zhamnov was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers. The team chose not to name a replacement for the rest of the season.

Notes

  1. ↑ Berard started his season wearing number 3 but switched numbers after former Blackhawk Keith Magnuson died in a car accident on December 15.[10]
  2. ↑ Drafted in the first round of the 2001 draft by Chicago, Munro’s rights expired without being signed to a contract prior to the 2003 draft. Chicago received a compensatory second round pick, 59th overall, in that draft.[28][29]
  3. ↑ In parentheses is the player's free agency group on July 1 if applicable.[34]
