Joel Quenneville arguably is the best coach in the NHL. He’s also one of the longest tenured.

In fact, Quenneville is the second-longest tenured bench boss in the league, just behind Claude Julien. The two veteran coaches meet again Thursday night in Boston when Quenneville’s Chicago Blackhawks visit the Bruins.

The return to New England is something of a homecoming for Quenneville. He spent part of his playing career with the Hartford Whalers, and he also coached a New England-based AHL team for one season before reaching the NHL.

Can you name the team he coached?
