While the Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks get set to square off in the Stanley Cup Final, the team at NESN.com decided to take a look at some of the best sports moments between the two proud cities.
Whether it’s the sharing of the two most famous curses in the history of sports, the various playoff meetings between the four professional sports teams in both cities or the multiple on-field brawls both cities were involved in, Boston and Chicago have formed quite the rivalry over the years. That’s not to mention the athletes that have worn both a Boston and Chicago jersey or sweater during their careers.
With so much history between the two cities, though, some moments inevitably had to be left out. These moments include the Bird vs. Jordan video game, the New England Revolution and Chicago Fire playoff rivalry from 2002-09 and the front page of the Chicago Tribune after the marathon bombings, which paid tribute to the sports teams in Boston.
