Including tonight's Maple Leafs 7-6 overtime win against the Blackhawks they have played 5 straight games against them going back to the 2016-2017 season that went into overtime and only one of those games needed a shootout. So I'm wondering what is the record of two teams playing so many overtime games against each other in a row? Listed below are the previous 4 Toronto/Chicago games that went into overtime, with the October 22, 2016 game being the only one that required a shootout.
