Not only will the forward make his NHL debut for the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday, but he'll do it against his brother, Kirby, a forward for the Montreal Canadiens, when the teams square off at United Center (8 p.m. ET; CHSN, TSN2, RDS).

The Dachs have faced a lot of ups and downs over recent years, but sharing NHL ice for the first time will be "definitely memorable."

Chicago Blackhawks center Colton Dach will be playing in his NHL debut across from his brother, Kirby of the Montreal Canadiens. Colton, who was drafted No. 61 overall in the 2021 NHL Draft, was called up from Chicago's AHL affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs on Thursday.
