Drew Magary Memorial Asymmetrical Rivalry Thread

I would say it's:

Lions - Packers (Bears)

The latter two are the closest thing we have to a rival, but neither one takes us seriously (and with good reason).

Okay, now what about the Red Wings?

I'm curious about the wild and where we stand in the eyes of Blackhawk fans.

That's a tough one. Taking into account the full franchise history, I would say it's either:

Modern

Avs - Wings (Blackhawks)

or

Traditional

Blackhawks - Wings (Leafs)



That said, Toronto probably looks at it like:

Wings or Sens - Leafs (Canadiens)

and Montreal looks at it like:

Leafs - Canadiens (Bruins)

Here's my question, are there any chain rivalries?

Team a - team b (team c (team d))
or
Team a - team b (team c - team d (team e))

The line from Wings/Sens/Sabres to Leafs to Canadiens (maybe to Bruins) might be the closest I can think of.

Depends on who Habs fans think is their chief rival.

The UND/Minnesota/WI trivalry is complicated by the fact that you have to add a fourth team to get a full understanding. Neither UND nor WI has ever beaten the real Minnesota.
