Default Who do you cheer for now?

I think I’d like to see one of these 3 teams win it all:

Columbus Blue Jackets
Carolina Hurricanes
New York Islanders

With a strong favourite being the Blue Jackets. I want to see Jarmo Kekalainen’s aggressive management from the trade deadline rewarded, and ditto with that fan base. Those fans have seen an awful lot of rubbish hockey since the team was first brought into the league.

I also really like Matt Duchene and Cam Atkinson, so I’m cheering for those two.

With Pittsburgh out, other than San Jose, I have no other team I actively cheer against. I’m probably going to follow the leafs and the blue jackets

Caps. They’ve been my 2nd team since they drafted Ovi.

Columbus, Colorado, and St.Louis for me, love their style of game.

Carolina is goofy and while I don’t mind some Jets, Laine is a loser. Would be happy seeing both those teams get the boot this round.

I can't cheer for the BJs because Torts & Marty.

I'm too jealous of Vegas and their early franchise success to cheer for them.

Toronto and St. Louis are on awful cup droughts, so I guess I'm cheering for them.

Nashville, St. Louis or Columbus. It would be cool to see a team get their first cup. If a team is going to be the first Canadian team to win the cup since '93 I want it to be the Flames, so anyone facing the Jets or Leafs will be who I cheer for if they advance.

Any team that’s never won it before with Loserpeg at the bottom of that list.

NYI? Forget it. They have a dynasty in their history. So, no way.
Bruins? They have recently won and are historically a pretty successful club. Plus I hate Marchand, that dirty, cheap shotting, little rat.
Capitals? Nope, they won last year.
Av’s. No ####ing way given they just carved my soul out and they too have won more than the Flames.
I don’t have the visceral hate for TO but ...that leaves the Sharks, Preds, and Knights.
Of those, I hope LV wins. For Engalland mostly.

Absolutely plus if they can sweep the next 3 series, we can brag that we were the only team to beat them once therefore 2nd best!

Avs, man are they an entertaining team to watch.

Mackinnon is an elite talent and is incredible to watch. If Avs go far he is playoff mvp

Rantanen is much more skilled than I thought. Guy has a seriously good shot and some great stick handling to go with it.

Makar looks like he is going to be an immediate impact player. His poise with the puck is beyond his years. He stick handles almost as good as Mackinnon.

Landeskog is pretty good too. More of a quiet leader and probably not as skilled as the previous three but still brings it.

I was also impressed with Wilson. Seems like he has more skill than his stat line suggests.

I gotta say I was really impressed by the Avs. They completely outplayed us and their best players are miles better than our best players. I hope they go far

Most definitely Colorado, what a fun team to watch, peaking at the right time and so utterly deserving of their hot streak.

Plus if they win the cup, we can say, well we lost to the champs lol

NY Islanders. Would be a great story, plus I get to remind the Oiler fans in my family about “Stanley Cup team member” Eberle

Probably time for them to trade Scheifele and Laine.
