I don’t know if I’d call being a fraction of a point ahead of Sparty in the pairwise domination but they are #1.
To Bonins earlier point about goaltending, power plays and face offs being inconsistent tonight was a good example.
We lost every face off in overtime. We lost a large majority of...

6: Denver (wish we played them more)
Being the dead zone of finals / winter break thought it would be fun to get a pulse on how we all view rivalries today. Post your top 6 rivalries in order and I will update this post with a composite ranking of how we the gopher hole posters (and in my case mostly reader) view our rivalries...
