2. Rangers versus Bruins

This is one of the most historical rivalries in the NHL, but it is still intense nonetheless.

With these two both being Original Six, the rivalry has some special story-lines to it. The pace never slows down, and neither does the physical play. Boston comes at you with full force and no mercy.

And let’s not forget that this rivalry goes across all sports. Boston and New York are just natural rivals. Whether it be Red Sox and Yankees, Jets and Patriots, or Knicks and Celtics. The two cities absolutely loathe each other.

As the divisions have changed, this rivalry certainly hasn’t. It’s still an Original Six matchup, and with the teams having so much history, fireworks are bound to happen.

And, of course, who can’t forget the famous Mike Milbury incident, where at the conclusion of the game, he went into the stands and beat a fan with his OWN shoe. That night he earned the nickname “Mad” Mike Milbury, and it is forever known as one of the funniest moments in sports history.
