Last years Van vs Edm series was one of the grossest couples weeks of my life as a hockey fan being out here in BC. It really brought to light how little Canucks fans (at least the ones I hang out with) are aware the rest of league. I actually had people assuming I'd be cheering for the Oilers because they're a 'Alberta team'..... Then I told them I was cheering for a meteor strike to hit the arena.
