These teams, which play each other in 2.4% of their season games, are apparently now rivals because Matthews is a good first round pick, and McDavid is a good first round pick. Or something. They’re not rivals. If anything, there is now a McDavid-Kadri rivalry after he was up in his face all night. The most hilarious part was Milan Lucic basically giving Kadri a stern talking to a la Apu: "I have politely asked you three times to stop mangling my McDavid. You leave me no choice but to... politely ask you once again." Anyway, the Leafs won! It was even a thrilling, though quick, overtime victory. DGB explained it best. > The Leafs/[Oilers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/edmonton-oilers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) game was all about a bunch of teenagers so it makes sense that overtime got everyone excited and then ended in 12 seconds. > > — Down Goes Brown (@DownGoesBrown) [November 2, 2016](https://twitter.com/DownGoesBrown/status/793637242120044545?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) [Kadri](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/71825/nazem-kadri?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) had a great quote after the game too. > Kadri: I didn't feel like getting embarrassed tonight.
