Bigger Rivalry: Kings/Sharks or Kings/Ducks?

[Cobiemonster]

What do you guys think?

I think it's Kings/Sharks because it kinda rivals Dodgers/Giants and there's been a lot of playoff series between the two teams - I think the Ducks rivalry has only gotten hyped up because the Ducks have been better lately and this is really the first time both the Ducks and Kings are really good

Kings and Sharks for reasons that included naughty words.

I'm curious who are the Sharks biggest rivals? I can understand the Sharks considering the Kings big rivals after last season, but to me the Kings & Ducks are a bigger rivalry.

 

[Slimpikins]

The Sharks biggest rivals were the Stars. They knocked us out of a few playoffs and we had some heated games. The Wings were playoff rivals for a bit and the Sharks Ducks have mostly been regular season enemies.

As far as the Kings and Ducks go, I haven't seen to many of their hands so I can't tell you if they have the same edge. Geographically the rivalry makes sense.

I vaguely remember a team from Cali in black beating my Rangers in some important games last year. Can't be sure, I've blocked it out of my memory.

I'd have to go with Ducks/Kings because both have won rings in the last decade. The Sharks usually get knocked out of the playoffs early.

I don't think you necessarily need success to qualify as a rivalry.

I mean, look at the Leafs and Sabres. Definitely still a rivalry there. And success? Well...

Subtle but important adjustment.

You have a point. Rangers/Flyers is a rivalry and combined they have 1 Cup since the 70's

Unfortuntely I was well acquainted with the Kings last Summer

I don't think it matters as much that both teams have rings in the last decade - when the Ducks won, Kings were bad and when the Kings won the first one the Ducks had missed the playoffs that season - finally the two teams are really good at the same time for the most part

Sharks/Kings have played a lot more playoff series in the last few years too, with some big time endings to those series, plus a lot of big regular season games and a lot of different things taking place as well
