Today, the spirit of rivalry is alive and burning. Regular playoff encounters attest to their enduring competition, and Ullmark's mask choice clearly resonates with a seminal Bruins moment.

Vezina Trophy recipient and Bruins' star goalie, Linus Ullmark, will wear a brand-new mask this year and the design has been shared on X.

Linus Ullmark's mask features the iconic image of Patrice Bergeron celebrating the Game 7, OT-winner vs. the Maple Leafs.

With Bergeron retiring from the NHL, Ullmark possibly aims to honor his ex-captain's illustrious career. Yet, the image can also be a reminder to the Leafs of their heart-wrenching 2013 playoff defeat against Boston.

Anticipation is high for this season. The roster changes, including Ryan Reaves, Max Domi, and former Bruin Tyler Bertuzzi in Leafs colors, and Lucic's homecoming to Boston, promise to be exciting to watch!
