Default CP's Most Disliked Franchise - Finals!

It's the middle of summer, and what else do we have to discuss other than Sandmans BM's and an Andersson trade?

I think we all know where this poll finishes, but some of the earlier rounds could have some interesting discussion. I present to you all, CP's most disliked franchise.

The idea is simple, vote for whichever team you dislike more. Maybe you hate the Wild for hacking at Gaudreaus wrists, maybe it’s the Canadiens for being french. We dont judge here, just vote with your dislike.

Should just exclude Edmonton as we already know they are no good and is a given the number 1

Overall I didn’t have too tough of a time in round 1 with my votes, islanders vs prnguins was a pretty tough choice out of indifference. Maple Leafs vs Blackhawks is interesting, both franchises have a lot of skeletons in the closet and are annoying in their own ways.

Winnipeg vs Nashville was a tough choice for me.

Oilers obviously just goes without saying.

I'd shoot the Oilers twice...

I don't know. Is Calgary an option? We seem to hate ourselves almost as much as we hate Edmonton.

Lightning ('04)
Jets (i'm indifferent the Nashville, fun town to drink in)
Rangers (Kinda liked the 90s Devils run when I wasn't worried if the Flames could win or not)
Knights (F the knights)
Islanders (I was a Lemieux/Crosby fan, Pens have a soft spot )
Flyers (Not sure just a feeling)
Oilers (I'm not explaining myself)
Capitals (in the 10's I used to draft a lot of sharks in my pools often kind of cheered for them)
Canucks (I'm not explaining myself)
Stars (how many self loathing people are here?)
Blackhawks (that 5-0 6-5 come back on pay per view still hurts my feelings)
Canadiens (Panthers beat the Oilers)
Mammoth (I liked Al MacInnis)
Jackets (Sens are the most neutral, least objectionable Canadian team for all )
Wild (Canes beat teh oilers)
Kraken (Kinda liked the 00s Red Wings, good players, developed the right way)

Having the Ducks and Oilers in the first bracket is tough. I mean, the Oilers is the choice, but the Ducks are my second or maybe third most hated.

Just going to say that about Ducks/Oilers. Ducks could have made the semis for me.

I’m gonna guess it will be Oilers vs Golden Knights and Maple Leafs vs Minnesota for the semi finals (there’s no re seeding between rounds, the bracket stays as is).

There are a few hard picks in that list.

I'm wondering if the Flames will be able to round 2....

Maple Leafs in a tough bracket with Canucks and Habs. Group of Derpth for me.

Why would anyone here on this forum select Dallas over the Flames? Weird to me, that people would even consider it.

This is the only bracket I want to see the Oilers come out on top.

That and maybe 'worst NHL cities'.

Yeah, Flames is the obvious choice.

I have no strong feelings about Dallas, or most other franchises for that matter.

The only strong feeling I have against them is ####ting the bed against the Oilers the last two conference finals.

Shame that the Ducks are up against the Oilers in round one.
Not that it was a hard choice at all
