I actually found that funny, but almost every fan base believes in 3 facts about their teams:

1. They don't get the benefit of the calls. The refs miss way too many calls from the opposition
2. The broadcasters are always biased to the other team, panels hate their team, etc.
3. Their team allows more 1st goals/wins/etc and slump busters than any other team

Go on any board and all the are running themes. The best way to see it is when your team isn't playing. For example, I went and looked at HFboards Oilers and Canucks when those two teams played each other and it was hilarious. The national broadcasters liked both teams more than the other and it was incredibly unprofessional how much they loved the other team. Both boards had "THERE'S TWO TEAMS PLAYING HERE!!!" multiple times
