The whole Canada's Team thing has been a little over done and people can cheer for whomever they want. I also do know that in a hypothetical scenario if US based North American pro teams couldn't actually compete and win vs Canadian teams after decades, enough people would want the "World Championship" trophy to come home.
If UK based teams, German, French, Spanish teams or whomever couldn't actually compete for Champions league trophies, someone might root for it to come home.
I don't want Toronto to win and whoever wins, can win now. That being said, if Canadian teams just don't win and won't win, is there really a point in being a Canadian hockey team fan?
