Who is each team’s biggest rival?

[Viqsi]

Just collateral damage

 

[Cellee]

Pretty much. CBJ is an adorable little cousin.

I don't cheer against them.

 

[bukwas]

Leafs don't have an interesting rival at the moment.
I'd like to see the old ones against the Wings and Sabres revived.

Tampa will be soon enough.

 

[LeafsNation75]

Tampa will be soon enough.

They already copied their jerseys to look like the Leafs current design.

 

[bukwas]

Tampa will be soon enough.

That could very well be.

The Bruins ate your dreams and washed them down with your tears in 2 of the last 3 playoff series your team has played, and they’re not an interesting rival?

Do you notice intense interest when the teams meet outside of a playoff matchup? A decent rivalry doesn't require a postseason meeting to get people pumped.

At this point the Sabres biggest rival is sanity.

 

[780il]

Very easily Calgary for the Oilers. We've also historically had the edge in the rivalry pretty much always .

 

[Kegsey]

LA. f*** them.

 

[Kale Hulls]

Sabers Leafs still has a little bit going, but not much. Kings Sharks Knights Ducks Flames was good last year. Hopefully Oilers can join this year.

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

Isles is always gonna be the rags but depending on The circumstances it could be the leafs pens caps flyers for a little while

Isles fans will throw all of their hatred against any body and for the next few years its probably gonna be the leafs while both
The isles and rags suck

Once Buffalo gets good again I can see the Leafs/Sabres being a thing again. If they meet in the playoffs the media hype for Matthews/Eichel will get silly.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

While there's some animosity with the Hawks and Caps due to playoff encounters, the teams with whom our regular season games are intense and occasionally brutal are probably the Wings, Pens and Bruins.

 

[DEVILS130]

Tried doing it for every team and there were actually quite a few I struggled with...Carolina, Colorado, Dallas, Detroit, Florida, Tampa Bay, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg. I struggled with Toronto because there were too many teams to pick from

The media already likes to hype them up each time they play against each other in the regular season.

It would be talked about a lot more though if they played in meaningful games.

 

[ccp14a]

Chicago, Winnipeg, St. Louis, Anaheim.

We don't really have one specific rival that's head and shoulders above the rest but there's some pretty solid hatred for all four of those teams. Chicago is still probably a tad bit higher than the other three.

 

[hangman005]

Vegas-San Jose.

Though Vegas fans hate LA more.

I mean for the teams it's probably LA-VGK, but I don't know fanbase vs fanbase I think VGK-SJ hate each other more.... well I don't know if SJ fans specfically hate us or the team, but after last season I pretty much lost all respect for SJ fans. Maybe we can build up to a respected contentious rivalry, but at the moment I despise them.

LA is fun to hate..... Ducks... quick question, is there a fanbase that doesn't hate the Ducks? Yotes, there isn't much there.

But LA and SJ would be top tier.

 

[bring back the jets]

Nashville for the Jets

2 of three years?

That's cute!

 

[Little Psycho]

For the Kings: Sharks, Ducks, Flames, and Knights. I generally think all the CA teams, the Flames, and knights just really hate each other.

 

[easton117]

Ya Boston is and will always be Montreal. Can’t beat that history.

And twice a year for some inexplicable reason their Dallas games get out of control. Someone somewhere fooled around with a wife they shouldn’t have there.

Toronto yours is Buffalo. Maybe Detroit. Stop invading other teams rivalries. Enjoy yours.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

The Blues biggest rival is undoubtedly Chicago. Probably Nashville second? Not really a big second one.
