FRISCO -- It's a budding rivalry right now. At the end of a best-of-seven series, it could be fully formed.
The Stars and Predators were hand-picked to be rivals. They are two sun belt teams with flashes of postseason brilliance in their respective histories. They're playing in the Winter Classic next year at the Cotton Bowl, the first outdoor game in both franchise's histories. But the playoffs breed familiarity and animosity.
Blake Comeau knows.
Comeau played against the Predators in the first round of last year's playoffs when he was a member of the Colorado Avalanche.
