Back in 2011, I was in Winnipeg finishing off my college degree. I noticed that even though we had the Canucks farm team (Manitoba Moose), and the majority of fair-weather fans were cheering for Vancouver, since thy were Canadian, all the die-hard fans and knowledgeable hockey fans were going for the Bruins. I am so glad the Bruins won that series. I could not stand the Canucks back then.
