To state the obvious, they are both Western Canadian NHL teams who made the playoffs. Both teams played yesterday - and both teams won by a single goal and registered less than 20 shots in a win.
And both teams are up 3-1 in their respective series' - with both teams going back to their home rinks to potentially move on to the next round.
On the negative side - both fan bases really don't like each other. While it has largely remained civil, there is one video making the rounds on social media that shows a slightly different side.
In the tweet above you can see a large group above chanting the phrase, "f*** the Oilers" over and over - while passerby's cheer and honk their vehicle horns.
While this is certainly not a great look - it's also not that bad. No one is getting hurt and Oilers fans probably feel a similar way about Canucks fans.
Either way, it's great to see two Canadian franchises doing well in the playoffs - especially when the Winnipeg Jets and Toronto Maple Leafs appear to be exiting the playoffs very soon.
