The Chicago Blackhawks also had its share of struggles to begin the 2000s, but the team's fortunes soon changed after drafting Jonathan Toews third overall in 2006 and Patrick Kane first overall in 2007. The duo of Toews and Kane helped the Blackhawks end a 49-year Cup drought in by defeating the Flyers in six games. It was then followed by two more Stanley Cup victories; first in against the Bruins, and then in against the Lightning.
