Quick Answer: A Blackhawks vs Maple Leafs car service gets you to the United Center for the Original Six matchup on Tuesday, November 17, listed for 6:30 p.m., with a chauffeured ride from O’Hare, your downtown hotel or the office. Your chauffeur drops you near the arena, waits nearby and meets you after the final horn. From Gold Coast and River North hotels, plan 15–25 minutes in weekday traffic. From O’Hare, plan 35–60 minutes.
A Blackhawks vs Maple Leafs car service is built for one of the season’s most anticipated weeknight games. On Tuesday, November 17, the Blackhawks host the Toronto Maple Leafs, an Original Six matchup that always draws a full house, including a strong contingent of Toronto fans who fly into Chicago for the game. For visitors, it can mean landing at O’Hare, checking into a downtown hotel and heading to the arena, all in one afternoon.
Business travelers face a similar challenge. They’re finishing a workday downtown, have a 6:30 p.m. puck drop, and rush-hour traffic sits in between. A chauffeur turns all of that into one smooth plan: a pickup at the airport, hotel or office, a drop-off near the arena, and a car waiting after the game.
As a Chicago black car service with more than 20 years of industry experience, Black Car Now drives visitors and executives to the United Center all season. This guide covers the game, airport and hotel timing, the weeknight drive, and how to choose the right vehicle.

Why This Game Draws Travelers
An Original Six rivalry
The Blackhawks and the Maple Leafs are two of the NHL’s founding franchises. Games between them carry history and a big-game atmosphere.
Toronto fans travel
Toronto’s fan base is one of the most traveled in hockey. Many fans fly into O’Hare, stay downtown for a night or two, and make a trip of it.
A weeknight start
A 6:30 p.m. puck drop on a Tuesday falls right in evening rush hour. Planning the ride matters more than on a weekend.
Confirm the time
Check the official Chicago Blackhawks schedule the week of the game, and confirm venue details on the official United Center website.
Flying In for the Game
O’Hare pickup
Your chauffeur tracks your flight and meets you on arrival, then takes you to your hotel or straight to the arena. International arrivals from Canada may need extra time for customs, depending on how the flight is processed. See our airport limo service.
Private aviation
Flying private? We coordinate pickups with your FBO. See our private jet and FBO transfers.
Same-day arrival timing
If you land the afternoon of the game, plan for at least two hours between landing and puck drop. That covers baggage, the drive, a quick hotel check-in and getting to your seats.
Arriving the day before
Many visitors arrive the night before to enjoy the city and avoid same-day travel stress.
Hotel-to-Arena Rides

- River North and Streeterville: about 15–25 minutes
- The Gold Coast: about 20–25 minutes

During the game
