Ottawa, Tampa Bay, Carolina and New York Rangers have f***ed with us in some ways or another recently too

That Ottawa rivalry gets pretty nasty sometimes

Ottawa has a hockey team?

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Pens/Rangers seems to be more of a rivalry now than the Pens/Flyers or Pens/Caps rivalries are currently…

 

[EXTRAS]

Utah fans spit everytime they drive by freshwater lakes.

 

[Albatros]

As good as none.

 

[PavelBure10]

I love that Canucks and Edmonton fans hate each other. It's been forever since we could have a friendly rivalry going. It makes the games way more entertaining.

Edmonton and Calgary aswell.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

An interesting one I find is Bruins/Stars

Don’t play often, but a fair amount of fireworks between them

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

For me as a Leaf fan gotta be Bruins . They are our big brother until proven otherwise. Doesn’t matter on paper , mentally they got our number . Historically it should be the Habs but personally I don’t feel the same kind of heat

 

[Xirik]

Maybe I should become a Canucks fan...

 

[CanadienShark]

Habs obviously Bruins. Leafs to a much lesser extent, it's more like the rest of Canada just dislikes the Leafs.

Sharks naturally Vegas is the obvious answer. Kings and Ducks too, but it's been years since we've had any real rivalry.

So true.

You can often find more Oilers' fans in Canucks threads than you can Canucks' fans.

Putting aside the more traditional rivalries, Canes vs Rangers is getting interesting after the past few years. Same division, multiple playoff series, Fox knee injury via Aho, Trouba trying to take Necas head off.

Or we could just go with Devils who traded for Macdermid just because they had no answer to Rempe and then we end up with everyone dropping their gloves and getting thrown out as soon as the puck drops later in the season.

Sabres vs the Playoffs.

Because he's funny looking yet creepy at the same time

I agree, Lundqvist definitely does.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Trouba and the Rangers/80% of Rangers fans is my new personal favorite.

Especially because you could see it coming as soon as that 56 million dollar ink was dry.

 

[Rcknrollkillnmachine]

As a Bruins fan I hate the Rangers, The Leafs the most while the Habs haven't been much of a rival of late but I know will change in future as they improve and become more competitive. I still hate the Habs but The Leafs have surpassed them as our number one rival the last few years.

The Canucks I hate the most in the west while I don't have the huge dislike of Tampa that many Bruins fans do.

Same for the Panthers as they remind me of old time Big Bad Bruins hockey along with the Finnish contingent being there makes me not despise them despite the playoff heartbreaks.

Seattle are starting to irk me for some reason the last few seasons.

 

[HockeyVirus]

As a Leafs fan, Leafs vs any high pressure / stakes game

 

[NYI365]

For the NYI i'd say NYR, TOR, PIT, TB, CAR are our biggest rivals going on the last 5+ years.
