Blackhawks, Jets to honor Humboldt Broncos at Saturday's game

The Chicago Blackhawks and Winnipeg Jets will support and honor those affected by the tragedy involving the Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team with a series of initiatives at their game Saturday night.

The Broncos, a junior hockey team based in Saskatchewan, were traveling in their bus Friday when a transport truck T-boned the vehicle. The crash has now left 15 dead.

In addition to a moment of silence before the game, the Jets and Blackhawks will wear "Broncos" on the back of their jerseys in place of individual names.

Here's a look at Winnipeg's threads:

All proceeds raised from the 50/50 raffle will be donated to the Broncos as well. The Jets, Blackhawks, and the NHL will each donate $25,000 to "sweeten the pot," according to the release.

Humboldt, Saskatchewan is located about seven hours west of Winnipeg, Manitoba, where the two teams will meet Saturday.
