No. 4: Edmonton Oilers
Auston Matthews vs. Connor McDavid is must-watch hockey anytime they play.
Both players are going to be nominated for the Hart Trophy this year, so watching the two best players in the NHL play against each other in the playoffs is rare.
The only reason why this isn’t lower on the list is because we’ve already seen them play nine times this year. The excitement is still there, but when you’ve seen this team so many times, it lessens the anticipation.
Although these teams have played each other so many times, watching Matthews and McDavid in a seven-game series would be amazing. After training with each other in the summer, and battling it out for the Hart Trophy, the intensity would be through the roof.
The rivalry of Matthews vs. McDavid could very well be our modern-day version of Sidney Crosby vs. Alex Ovechkin, so being able to see these two superstars play their heart out in order to get a win for their struggling franchises is can’t miss TV.
