Look at the drama Bruins and Caps series caused on here and it was the first round. Any match with the Leafs will always be on here. The homers will hype everyone to shit and the haters will look for any reason to proclaim to the HF heavens they were right and XYZ really does suck or is over rated.

And then everyone else gets caught up in it, and usually Now imagine the other team had some other storyline to it (like Boston and the 2013 collapse). For example Matthews vs Eichel, or Leafs vs Jets, or Matthews vs McDavid.

Basically pick any team that has a rabid following either for the team itself or for a particular player and watch the shit show.

Leafs vs. Oilers no matter the outcome
Leafs vs Isles in any playoff round that has Toronto lose
Leafs vs a southern team in the ECF or SCF and someone like Arizona wins

If they both continue to be competitive the Habs Bruins games could get spirited. Especially if a player (ok either Gallagher or Marchand) does something dumb.

It’s been pretty tame the last few years. I don’t see that lasting forever

The Leafs and the Jets and it’s not even close. These teams play a few relatively meaningless regular season games against each other and the boards explode, imagine them playing for a Stanley Cup?

Penguins vs. Oilers: Crosby vs. McDavid, but since the majority of website "believes" that McDavid is better than Crosby for some odd reason, then some interesting arguments will be insured...

On an extra note, try to compare Crosby & McDavid's team chemistry & playing styles: Who's better offensively & defensively? Any special attributes/skills? Would they still succeed with different players or team systems/strategies?
There isn't any odd reason about it, go watch some 2018 hockey and stop living in 2012

SC Final of Avs vs Sens would be pretty funny.

If we were excluding Canadian teams I think Ducks vs Pens would be a good SC final too. Ducks have some players that could get under Crosby and Malkin's skin. Which would make both sides getting hateful on HF.

Obviously Leafs VS Oilers... Maybe Leafs vs Canucks.

Definately Leafs coming from the East in any scenerio

Ultimate shit storm:

It’s game 7 in Toronto. Stanley cup finals. 19 minutes deep into double OT in a 0-0 game. Matthews has the puck on a 3-1. He gets pulled down from behind by Draisaitl in a quite obvious penalty. The refs don’t call it, McDavid grabs the puck, wheels up the ice and buries it in on a breakaway. McDavid raises the cup for Edmonton, in Toronto.


I don’t think there is a scenario that would cause more of an uproar on this site.
