Mayor Rahm Emanuel said in a statement: “Stan Mikita was a Chicago original. One of the greatest players ever to take the ice, this product of war-torn Czechoslovakia immigrated with his family to Canada before making his mark — and his home — in Chicago. His fierce competitiveness and toughness belied a creative and innovative style that made him a fan favorite. Amy’s and my thoughts are with the Mikita family, and the Chicago hockey community, as we say farewell to this icon.”
