Boston/Montreal is by far #1.

Pittsburgh/Philadelphia is great too.

Calgary/Edmonton used to be awesome, but now it seems that both cities hate Vancouver so much they've seemed to have forgotten how amazing that rivalry was.

But I dunno.... that Tampa/Florida rivalry... WOW. I mean, Bettman must've been on to something! Tard.
