Fans of the Chicago Blackhawks and the National Hockey League who are located in Milwaukee, WI will have a chance to get up close and personal when preseason action comes to Fiserv Forum, the home of the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks. 

The Blackhawks, led by 2023 Round 1 first overall Draft selection Connor Bedard, will take on the rival St. Louis Blues in a warmup contest that will also mark the second time the franchise has played at the venue; they previously played the Minnesota Wild in 2022. 

"Our players, staff and fans had such an incredible experience at Fiserv Forum two years ago, and we’re really excited to bring Blackhawks gameday back to Milwaukee this upcoming preseason," said Jaime Faulkner, president of business operations for the Blackhawks in a news release. "This is a great opportunity for all of our fans in northern Illinois and Wisconsin to be a part of Blackhawks hockey."

Fiserv Forum opened in 2018 as a replacement for Bradley Center, and can accommodate 15,178 hockey fans while seating 17,385 for basketball.
