Forget about the Battle of Ontario and the Battle of Alberta, or the cross-river rivalry or the 'Sunshine Cup' in Florida.
We need new rivalries, and it's been a while since we've gotten a really heated one such as the Knights and Sharks.
But how about Flyers-Ducks? Despite sharing only a similarity in jersey color, and having no shared history or geographical proximity to each other, Tuesday's emotional game sowed the seeds of a potential rivalry for years to come.
Having swapped disgruntled players -- including Trevor Zegras' unceremonious exit from the Ducks and Cutter Gauthier's refusal to play for the Flyers -- there are plenty of personal reasons for each team to exact revenge.
It culminated in a game with plenty of trash talk and cheap shots, and even spawned more Zegras memes with the 'hang up' celly and a post-game interview for the ages where he admitted the win was 'f__ing awesome.'
What do you think is the best new rivalry in the NHL?
