Funny thing about some of Pittsburgh's most iconic rivalries they started over controversial reasons...Steelers-Raiders the Immaculate Reception and Bruins-Penguins over a uniform color change.
Half the teams in the league have red or blue so I don’t get the color issue. Pittsburgh is the only city in North America that uses the same color scheme for all its Big Four teams (black and gold are also the colors of the city flag) and it’s not like they’ll ever give that up.
@@lucarossi8913 you're dumb af that's literally the baseball team you're thinking about...the pirates hockey team came in 1926... typical triggered bandwagon pens fan who can't even watch the video.
Brother, you say that to any Bostonian or Yinzer, and you can expect them to shout at you continuously until you back off. The hatred between these two teams is real, and I'm saying this from a bystander's perspective, and as someone who hates both teams.
Cindy Crosby trying to convince people he’s a man by going after Chara. Chara had to be laughing because if Crosby fought Chara, Cindy would be dead lol!
Millberry lost his cool and his team followed his lead instead of staying focused and putting pops in the net Millberry made it personal and cost his team this playoff series he’s done in his entire career as a player and coach
I would of preferred to have Jagr and the bruins take Iggy. He did join them the next season anyway. I remember Iggy unexpectedly joined the pens. I just wanna see Jagr play 1 season with us before he's done. Like Gonchar, he played 1 game this year and then hung them up
As great as that may be, Hell must freeze over for Jagr to return to Pittsburgh with a warm welcome. I know you Penguins fans constantly curse us Capitals fans over the Jagr trade for two reasons: you think we fleeced you in the trade, and how Jagr indirectly contributed to us getting Ovechkin (Jagr under-performed in DC, and when we sold most of our talent to start afresh, we inadvertently dipped our fingers in the Ovechkin sweepstakes of 2004, who was more or less destined to go to Steel City). Jagr leaving Pittsburgh back then was seen as 'good riddance', considering how he demanded a trade, and how much of a lousy teammate he was in the locker room. He had since matured, but eh, I don't see the Penguins faithful welcoming him back with open arms barring a miracle.
Ken Hamada People still wear his jersey at games and all. It's a new gen, they probably don't mind. Also he said he was cool with Mario and told the story of why Mario came back to play after retiring.
It's not a historic rival like the Bruins and Canadians. But it's a good rivalry none the less because of that series in the 90's. I remember watching that series and getting so fucken upset when ulf cheep shot Cam Neely. Ever since that hit it's been bad blood between them and US. And don't get me started on the Matt Cooke hit. Pittsburgh has done a real number on our star players over the years.. Smh..
I Hate Pittsburgh More Even Though I Hate Boston Too As a Flyers Fan This Rivalry Should Called "Black and Gold Vs Black and Gold" Since Both Teams Have The Same Colors!
It’s funny to me with millburry saying it breaks the code then chuckling on tv whenever Marchand sticks his knee out and hits so many players left and right. Dudes a bum
since when have these two teams been rival's? seriously I'm glad you're trying to make money nbc and i'm glad you're putting two non rival teams against each other to get fans to watch, whats next wild versus panthers cause they have been rivals since never
Not arch-rivals, that will be the Canadiens and Flyers for the Bruins and Penguins respectively. However, there have been a lot of bad blood between both teams. I can give a list, but there might not be enough room to list every misdeed committed by one team on the other.
There not rivals like Boston & Montreal or Pittsburg & philidelphia or Chicago & st. Louis or rangers & islanders but they have had some big confrontations in the playoffs because they are 2 very good organizations (god I had to compliment pittsburg..I need a shower).
A dirty hit that set off each iteration of the rivalry. I wish they would point out that each time it was Pittsburgh that threw the dirty hit. Organization is always employing guys like Matt Cooke and Ulf Samuelson. Dirty organization.
So, I'm just putting it out there but why did the NHL go so far to save hockey in Pittsburgh? That's almost shameful, especially considering how quickly Quebec City got their team taken away.
They only focus on American teams why on earth!!! I don’t know 🤷🏻♂️ there is the rivalry between Calgary and Edmonton or Montreal and Toronto, they’re bias!!!
It was a NBCSN series, they usually made episodes to go with the game matchups on their midweek coverage, thus some of the episodes aren't true rivalries that we think of and they didn't show a lot of inter-Canadian games.
Baseball, hockey, basketball and football in North America all had a team called the Pittsburg Pirates.
I like how Cooke is hiding now in retirement

You can spit shine your shoes cause we're going dancing with lord Stanley. You have to be here to believe it.
Mike Lange 1991 and 1992

Why doesn't NBC do a Colorado/Detroit episode? or maybe a Chicago/Vancouver? I would watch that
Because it's NBC
or hawks blues
+OneTimer they been did hawks vs blues
not to mention Edmonton VS Dallas, Battle of Alberta and Vintage Montreal vs Quebec
Taylor Gibson Ducks/Kings, Sharks/Kings, Vancouver/Calgary, Calgary/Edmonton. We need more Western Confrence rivalries.
The pirates didn't have black and gold first, they were created in 1926 the Bruins were created in 1924
Connor McDubstep Pittsburgh just copied them. They’re the original Black and Yellow.
Technically, at that point, we still used brown and gold. Still though
Connor McDubstep yea but the pirates were around since the late 1880s
Bruins didn't have black on their uniforms until 1934.

now boston technically owns the pens lol
It looked like Mario didn't want to go to Pittsburgh when they called out his name
wtf bruins and pens aren't even rivals, maybe because of 2013 ecf idk
BST™ - Bono's Sports Talk I would consider us rivals with them
I'm a bruins fan and I hate Pittsburgh 💯 we are the true black and gold

They became rivals in the early '90s because thet met in the Wales Conference Final in '91 and '92.
Kevin Budzinski agreed
Why does every Penguins rivalry have to include something stupid Sidney Crosby didn't?
Danny cry baby crosby
If Crosby was in a diving contest, I would give him a 10/10, but because he does it on the ice, I only give it an 8.7/10.
Cindy Crosby trying to convince people he’s a man by going after Chara. Chara had to be laughing because if Crosby fought Chara, Cindy would be dead lol!
Between Chara & Stan Jonathon; Who Was The Toughest Fighter On The Ice?
Thomas Sanzi chara without a doubt
Stan Johnathan, buy a huge mile, don’t get me wrong, Chara is tough, but for pure fighting, Johnathan
Millberry lost his cool and his team followed his lead instead of staying focused and putting pops in the net Millberry made it personal and cost his team this playoff series he’s done in his entire career as a player and coach
Just think if lindros had just gone and played where he was drafted to he would’ve been respected much more and maybe had a longer career

5:44 Great balls of fire
I dont have the same hatred for Boston I have for Pittsburg. Penguin tears give me sustenence.
They obviously don't give you the ability to spell Pittsburgh correctly.
They are just two strong teams not really a rivalry
same thing happened in 2010 as in 1991
Milbury "Any good coach..." referencing himself. ROFL.
even though I don't like the bruins I have to admit that penguins player got what he deserved for that hit he was practically asking for it
I Hate Pittsburgh More Even Though I Hate Boston Too As a Flyers Fan This Rivalry Should Called "Black and Gold Vs Black and Gold" Since Both Teams Have The Same Colors!
Pens = black and GOLD
Bruins = black and YELLOW
Bruins= Black and Gold
Steelers= Black and Yellow
David Dolan Bruins: gold
Penguins: stale piss
Lance Milliken hahaha fuck the penguins
It’s funny to me with millburry saying it breaks the code then chuckling on tv whenever Marchand sticks his knee out and hits so many players left and right. Dudes a bum
Ulfie was a great prick, back in the day, sure he killed Neely's career, but everyone wanted him on their team.
'
The fawk everyone wanted him on their team! Philly, Boston, Detroit are 3 that wanted nothing to do with the swedish meatball!
emma duncan ulf pretty much ruined cam Neelys career
Go Bruins!!!!
Ummm... Pittsburgh and Philly. Rivals.
MassHoles vs Jagoffs
@S S 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Steel Jackson did you watch the video

How are they not?
we aren't rivals but like shit happened between both of the teams but meh idk what to tell you

Daniel Tinker that was mostly Lemieux, he bought the team and kept them there, rather than move to Kansas city
I hate the Penguins. Period.
