New enemies, whom do you fear the most?

OK. So.

I should start by clarifying a couple of things. Firstly, by "Penguins Nation" I basically meant Pens fans. So, my point was that the Bruins humbled the Pens' fans (on the whole), which - and I guess I was being just a tad facetious here - is almost as difficult as winning the Cup. So, props and kudos to them for that. Secondly, I didn't necessarily mean to say the Bruins are as good as the Blackhawks, just that they're our new "bitter rival." Which is, I concede, maybe kind of a snotty thing to say. ("Hey, we're the Wings. We're amazing. Who's the most amazing team in this place? Boston? OK, they're our new rival.") (Whaaaat??)

SensViking, I like your posts. And not just because you're nice to the Wings. Actually, to be honest, I think you may be overestimating the Wings a bit, and maybe even selling the likes of the Bruins short.

Thanks Dabura! I've always thought of the Wings as a class organization which kept a high level of skill and competitiveness despite not tanking seasons and drafting high. I've never had a real working knowledge of the roster because of the Wings being in the West but with Alfie joining the team I have been keeping a closer eye.

Being a bit of a hockey tramp- I'm not just a Sens homer but a hockey fan- I watch a lot of games so now the Sens,Wings and Coyotes are on my radar for this season. Please keep the Coyotes comments kind- I've been a fan for a few years.

That being said I feel I can add a bit of Eastern conference thoughts annnnnnd...........

How do you l like the Wings vs Boston now? I know it's pre-season but I don't think I was being too kind to the Wings.

and don't worry about Alfie's groin- he's a warrior.

Bruins bother me but everyone else im not bothered by

Everyone bothers me, but the red wings I am not bothered by, in fact I rather like them, they do not bother me at all, ever

Well, to be fair, that lineup Boston iced last night was pretty shoddy, whereas ours could've passed for an official regular-season squad. And, y'know, the whole goalie thing.
