When the Flames are out I still enjoy the playoffs because its almost always great hockey. That being said a fair bit of my enjoyment also comes not from wanting certain teams to win but in hoping certain teams lose. If a team I could otherwise not care about is in a position to make me happy (hello Washington) then they'll have my support but never to the extent the Flames would. Not even close.
In the case of Vegas vs. Winnipeg, I don't want either team to win so I just have to hope for the lesser of two evils (in my mind). Go Vegas, I guess.
