Nick Foligno received a standing ovation from Chicago Blackhawks fans during his return to the United Center in Tuesday’s Wild vs. Blackhawks matchup.

The tribute came just weeks after Foligno was traded to Minnesota at the NHL Trade Deadline on March 6.

During a stoppage in the first period, the Blackhawks played a video honoring the former captain, prompting fans to rise and applaud.

Foligno acknowledged the crowd with a salute as one fan held a sign reading: “Thank you Nick!”

He spent three seasons in Chicago from 2023 to 2026 and was named the team’s 36th captain ahead of the 2024 season.

Speaking before the game, Foligno reflected on his time with the organization and the emotional return. He said he is thankful for his time in Chicago and its impact on him and his family. The former captain also reunited with former teammates ahead of the game, sharing a meal together the night before.
