ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 Do you guys think this series loss will be the start of a serious rivalry with the Ducks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 I don't really feel the hatred that I normally feel with a rivalry. If it was a team full of hacks like Pronger then definitely But I think Nashville will end up being the closest thing we have to a real rivalry for the next little while.

If it was a team full of hacks like Pronger then definitely But I think Nashville will end up being the closest thing we have to a real rivalry for the next little while. I think its safe to say that the Colorado rivalry has demised, especially with them missing the playoffs. The St. Louis rivalry died a while ago, and although Anaheim will definitely create some interesting matchups in the future, I don't see them becoming anywhere near Colorado in the late 90's-early 2000's. I'd say Nashville is becoming a huge rival. The fans absolutely hate the Wings, and moreover, hate Wings fans. If they continue some of those good battles they had earlier in the season, I can see that rivalry picking up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordie Howe hat trick 110 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 Yeah i can see what is being said here about the Preds and the Wings, only thing is I don't think it will turn into an Avalanche rivalry seeing as how we really don't scrap like that anymore, nor do we have really anyone to do it. That and we realize their organization as a whole is a joke, and they are worse goons than the Ducks if you ask me. A rivalry against the ducks? maybe if we get eliminated by them again next year, and there are some more cheap shots that really injure players, or if they keep mowing down our goalie.

Offsides 21 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 I think our closest rival is the Preds. I think I have a personal rivalry with Pronger, myself. Other than that, we would have a better rivalry with the Flames....Ducks were dirty, but we never got angry enough to get them back where it counted....
