Two things Boston Bruins fans love: Zdeno Chara and making fun of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Chara has been in the NHL for a long time, 24 years and 1,680 games, to be exact. However, there are rumblings that the 45-year-old is considering retiring from the league this summer.
With that comes an insane stat: Chara is the only active NHL player that has played against the Maple Leafs in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The last time the Leafs won a playoff round was in 2004, but Chara was the last active player to face them in the second round back in 2002 with the Ottawa Senators.
