Nine years after epic Stanley Cup run, these Bruins-Hawks rivals are still mixing it up
Thursday night's early slate of games features the Blackhawks visiting the Bruins at TD Garden.
It is the Hawks first visit to Boston since February of 2020, and the first of two meetings between both squads in the next six-day frame.
But for some of the most notable players on each squad, Thursday's affair will bring back a lot of memories. As a matter of fact, a Bruins-Hawks matchup is always particular for forwards Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand, as well as Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews.

It was a year in which both squads were are the top of their game; with the final series between them featuring the hungry fifth-ranked Bruins trying everything to knock off the top-ranked Hawks.
Here's a look back at every goal scored during the series that featured Bergeron, Kane, Marchand and Toews:
While the end result wasn't what B's fans were hoping for, the high-paced action and electric atmosphere from the series alone made it all worthwhile!
