TheRussianRocket. Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Long off-season for us fans, and I was just searching some stuff and decided I'd post some good material I've found. Lady's & Gentlemen, I introduce you to: The Greatest Rivalry In Hockey Today. Note the video was made before the game 7 win so that series wasn't included in this video unfortunately. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fi9tGGCnxnY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The greatest rivalry in ALL of hockey? Canada v. USSR, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Great rivalry, but I'd be hard pressed to say it's the greatest. No matter how you turn it, the Bruins-Canadiens rivalry is the greatest in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 personally I think this video might have been released 2 years later. Rivalry has dimmed down quite a bit. Games between Vancouver and Chicago have been intense this season, but not to the extent were guys were showing up ready to fight or take dumb penalties.

Lychees Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Habs Bruins? MUCH MUCH more bad blood between them, us is just an amazing and entertaining games. Habs & Bruins there's a bunch more after-whistle shenanigans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanKeslord17 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The best rivalry is obviously the NHL vs Vancouver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Killer Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Maybe top 25 ever, but this is one of the better modern rivalries. I always loved Colorado/Detroit though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apples Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Its a great rival, but not the greatest. Luongo vs the fans at one point was pretty great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbox Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It's huge for sure, but IMO Philly - Pittsburgh is the biggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure fan Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 If Canucks play the Bruins more often, that would be a pretty big rivalry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurrsArrows Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Leafs-Sens? Habs-Leafs? Bruins-Habs? Pens-Flyers? Battle of Alberta? Top 10, but not the greatest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieCrumbs Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 So pathetic we let them come back to Game 7 Overtime after being up 3 - 0. Nearly choked the sh*t out of that FIRST round. People tend to forget that and speak as if we just stormed through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuck nit Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Boston / Montreal going back five decades or more. Detroit / Toronto going back forever as did all the original six teams rival one another. The Battle of Alberta was massive as Edmonton and Calgary won six cups in the eighties. Edit; Just reading about the Montreal -Toronto rivalry.Pretty heavy duty and very significant historically for the nation/culture,not just the rivalry between hockey clubs.

coastal.view Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 the best current rivalry for my money was on display recently in these playoffs ottawa - montreal the stuff that happened in that series crazy but so entertaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Kane Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I think Chicago/Vancouver is the best rivalry in the NHL, but I feel it's losing some steam. With realignment coming next season it will lose a bit more luster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
