Programming note: Watch the re-air of Game 3 of the first round of the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs between the Sharks and Anaheim Ducks tonight at 8:00 p.m. PT on NBC Sports California.
Hate is a strong word.
But when it comes to Sharks fans and their relationship with the Vegas Golden Knights, it’s a pretty apt descriptor.
When asked who San Jose’s biggest rival is in a Twitter poll, fans responded overwhelmingly in favor of the NHL’s newest organization.
While the game fans will see tonight on NBC Sports California features the Anaheim Ducks, the Golden Knights come away as the team's fiercest adversary.
