Any team that's never won before because it makes The Canucks more futile, and makes their fans cry. Washington or St. Louis would be ideal.

Haha I was just gonna post that I just hope it's not a team that hasn't won a cup yet. Although I like teams like Nashville and Winnipeg.

Jets or Preds. My roommate is a Jets fan so I've been watching a bunch of their games. Super fun team to watch, with an elite sniper, great C depth, good D and great goaltending. A team that was patient, didn't listen to fans who wanted the GM/coach fired, and now things look to be coming together and making them a contender for years to come.

Or Preds because they are the team I had hoped the Flames would emulate. Built from the back end out, they utitlize their D properly and their GM made some great trades to get them to where they are.

In the East I wouldn't mind the Pens coming out on top again. I do enjoy dynasties and the Pens have a solid chance to three-peat.

I'm not cheering for anyone, but I could tolerate the Preds winning. Be nice for Fisher.

Lotta Vegas love on here. This is 100% sour grapes but they can go #### themselves. Hope they’re swept in the first round. Expansion team not only makes the playoffs but tops in the division.? Screw that. Their fans are already spoiled, they don’t need a cup just to continue the “feel good story”.

Whichever team has the best expected value in terms of betting payout entering the playoffs.

If winning money wasn't an option, as a Flames fan I of course would not cheer for any other team in our conference and especially not one from our division.

Like the feel good story of the Knights, but I don’t want any team in our division winning the cup. I also don’t like Vegas because they took our playoff spot.

I tend to cheer for players, not teams aside from the Flames. Even on teams like the Ducks I can usually find someone I like (not the Oilers or Canucks though).

Gun to my head I'd like the Preds and maybe the Caps or Pens. Do not want TB (though I like some of their players - they already stole a PO), Columbus (Torts), Toronto (Toronto), Boston or Phillie (just meh).

eta: Not the Jets - don't like the "we're the best fans who suffered through out team moving" business and the cheap ass white out

Was cheering for Jets...but a lot of Jets fans are starting to get really obnoxious now that the Jets are having a good year. Like really obnoxious...Roughriders' fan obnoxious. I'm at the point where the only other Canadian team I could stomach cheering for would be Ottawa...but they probably aren't wining for a while.

Going to cheer for Washington.

Ha, yeah, by getting 23 more points over the first 77 games. You are right got. That 103 point performance was the one Gully said this team should have.
