Between the respective sports teams of Philadelphia and Chicago, there have been numerous encounters, some of them which have been quite memorable in a positive light for us fans on the Philly side. Immediately, one thinks of the famous “double doink” play in the 2018 NFL playoffs between the Eagles and Bears, which miraculously sent the Eagles through to the next round and left the Bears dumbfounded.
However, in particular with the rivalry that has developed in the 2010’s decade between the Flyers and Blackhawks, things are a bit different. I would call the Flyers and Blackhawks secondary rivals, in that there does exist a certain animosity between the teams, though perhaps more so between Flyers fans and the entire Blackhawks’ existence.
