You don’t really get more “rivalry” than the Montreal Canadiens vs. the Boston Bruins.
Most obviously, it’s perhaps the sport’s most history-rich give-and-take. Even if you throw out the grainy videos of disdain and playoff squabbles, the two competitive teams have developed plenty of contemporary distaste.
It all boils down to a great way to kick off what should be an entertaining doubleheader on NBCSN. You can stream Bruins - Habs below.
After that, you have a battle of two No.1 picks from Nova Scotia (they’ve even done cheesy Tim Horton’s commercials together) as Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins take on Nathan MacKinnon and the Colorado Avalanche.
Sure, both teams are struggling, but all that firepower could amount to a great time. Stream below.
