Ottawa would be the least offensive

Ditto.
I DGAF about 'Canadian Teams' other than the Calgary Flames. I want the Flames to win it.
Other than that it can go to Florida for all I GAF.

They’re just a Kadri away from a cup.

Yeah. People who think this way are weak!
The 'for Canada' reasoning is reserved for international play only.

Who would want another Canadian team to win? Can you imagine their fan bases for the next 30 years.

Winnipeg doesn't bother me that much. I actually lived most of my life between the age of 1-21 within 200 km of Winnipeg, so in a way they were my home team until they left town. Although the Flames were always my #1 team when I got into hockey.
Honestly, from a market point of view, they are arguably the biggest underdog in the league. I'd be super jealous if they won the Cup before the Flames win another, but I wouldn't hate it as much as any of the other Canadian teams winning.

It wouldn't bother me at all if Winnipeg or Ottawa won the cup, Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver would suck but if Edmonton won I might just stop watching the NHL for a few years.

I’m going to keep bringing up that idiotic Sportsnet segment during the first game of the season calling the Leafs, Oilers, and Nucks playoff locks while arguing if the Jets would even make the playoffs.

Oilers, Leafs and to a lesser extent Habs I don’t want to win the cup. Couldn’t care less if any one else wins. I don’t really care about the Sens , Jets or even Canucks. They’re just teams at this point.

Who cares.
They won’t go anywhere in the playoffs like usual.
