I dunno - I have to think it's significantly tied to cultural/political issues.
Obviously Oilers and Canucks hate is understandably good.
We are bombarded with Leaf's stupidity from national media, always have been, always will be I guess. Very hate worthy.
Winnipeg and Ottawa not relevant enough to hate.

It's their fans.
Even if Canucks were not a diving, whining, dirty group I would still dislike that team because of their fans. Maybe not hate, but dislike. Montreal is sort of like this but with a huge dose of arrogance due to many historic wins. Sort of like Oiler fans in the '90's.
I also get sick of original six so somehow more worthy bull crap too.
