Rivalry Week: Remembering the Milan Lucic vs. Mike Komisarek feud
Photo by Bruce Bennett/Getty ImagesThe two weeks from June 28 through July 11 are Rivalry Weeks across SB Nation! We’re exploring all things rivalry, starting with a personal feud that boiled over on many, many occasions.
Ryan Miller comes to mind, as do some of the guys Lucic speared in, uh...sensitive regions.
Still, those enemies pale in comparison to Milan Lucic’s one true enemy: Mike Komisarek.
Lucic and Komisarek didn’t like each other. Like really, really, REALLY didn’t like each other.
Their personal rivalry mirrored the late-2000’s heating up of the Bruins-Canadiens rivalry. The teams met in the playoffs in 2008, 2009, and 2011, and Komisarek was on the Habs for two of those match-ups.
