The Canucks' rivalry with the Chicago Blackhawks has died down significantly in the past few years, but the smallest event could set things on fire once again.

Fans of the Canucks and Boston Bruins loathe one another, and this mutual dislike is mirrored by the teams themselves. While the Bruins admittedly are not the same dominant squad of years past, a Vancouver/Boston matchup is always a must-watch.
