[Cotton]

I was have some rivalry discussion and I thought I'd just ask our fan base here. Who do you view as our biggest current rival?

My personal opinion is Buffalo, but I'd thought I'd ask anways.

Montreal
Ottawa
Buffalo
Detroit
Other - specify

The Salary Cap

 

[Fogelhund]

Montreal, then Ottawa... is this a real question?

 

[Lion15]

Depends on the year. Historically its MTL. At times its been OTT. Others its been BUF.

 

[ACC1224]

Other - impatience.

 

[The Apologist]

Other - impatience.

This.

And Edmonton

 

[yubbers]

Reimer

 

[I Believe]

Montreal

Gotta admit though, our rivalries have waned because we've been so bad for so long. Hoping to see that change.

 

[Swervin81]

Montreal
Ottawa
Detroit
Buffalo
Boston

Funny enough it could be Buffalo right now. 2 battling rebuilding clubs, plus the whole Babcock thing, plus a ton of **** has gone down since they got Scott although he's not there anymore. I'd still put Ottawa and Montreal ahead of them though just because theyre traditionally our rivals. Boston not so much, the playoff series was a while ago now, teams are completely different plus all the parts of the Kessel trade will be gone

 

[mcleex]

I would say Montreal but I do hope the Detroit rivalry starts growing

The Toronto sports media

 

[Trapper]

Other - impatience.

Or: The media.

 

[FlareKnight]

The Salary Cap

This has been the rival kicking our rears for the past few years since it came into the league.

Otherwise I'm not sure we really have one, not until we are going back up the standings again.

 

[Leafstreak]

The Habs. Although they've been better than us the last few years and the Bruins are their main rivals, I look forward to games against the Canadiens the most and I get the most gratification out of beating them then any other team.

I just couldn't imagine a playoff series against them one day.

 

[xyzz]

Toronto vs Montreal transcends any current issues (roster, standings, salary cap)

 

[Brewsky]

Use to be Boston until their horr-awful Seguin and Hamilton trades.

I'll do

Montreal
Ottawa/Buffalo (Buffalo will be our competition now, and steadily rise)

Then the rest of the jabronis.

 

[jhmiddleton81]

I honestly don't mind montreal that much personally, but I would rank it
1. Boston
2. Ottawa
3. Buffalo

I cannot stand any of them, Boston is the worst, then the others are really annoying to me as well

 

[The Apologist]

The Toronto sports media

can we get this added to the options?

Now i wish i could change my vote

Plus one for media

 

[dzigns]

Depends on the year. Historically its MTL. At times its been OTT. Others its been BUF.

This.

2001-2004: Ottawa
2005-2008: Montreal
2009-2014: Boston
2015-????: Most likely Buffalo

 

[Swayze*]

the basement

 

[Myke]

How is Boston not on the list?

 

[yubbers]

can we get this added to the options?

Tis a good one

 

[TheOtherSide]

Edmonton, Arizona, Caro......ohhhh wait, we're not talking about lottery standings here??

 

[Super Mega]

I voted Ottawa just because I take so much pleasure when the leafs beat them - hate that fanbase so much

Montreal is obviously a close second.
