Default Who are you following in the Playoffs?

For the last few months, I was trying to pick an Eastern team to root for/follow in the Playoffs but I can't to pick one.

Are you going to follow any particular team this spring? Or take a break from Hockey for a bit?

I'm a fan of Tkachuk, so will follow the Panthers and hope they find success. I'm also a fan of the Leafs, so will be routing for them to do well. Also want the Bruins to cap off their amazing season and win it all. And lastly, whoever plays the Oilers, I will be routing hard for.

My son has been a huge Devils fan for about 15 years. Will be rooting for New Jersey in the East. The West is going to be nuts. I like Dallas and Los Angeles as the teams to beat. Will probably root for Dallas. Very likeable team outside of Jamie Benn....plus playoffs Daryl Reaugh is awesome

Colorado and Boston. Boston's historic season deserves a cup run. MacKinnon and Makar are just so enjoyable to watch - they play the game the right way.

Florida. Go Benny, Go Chucky!

After that, New Jersey.

Everyone in the West can rot.

The oh too familiar supporting of "whoever plays the Oilers". Huge fan of them.

I don't want any new team winning the Cup because it's hilarious that Vancouver has been in the Sad Club for 50+ years.

Also don't want Toronto to win. Or the Oilers.

Otherwise I don't care who wins.

Florida and New Jersey.

Can't cheer for anyone in the West, though I do love me some Cale Makar so the Avalanche if I have to pick.

All the teams except Winnipeg Toronto and Edmonton.

Don't want to get greedy cheering against Florida Rangers and Vegas.

I like the Avs, especially Makar. I like TB a fair bit. The Devils are an interesting team to watch.

I’m jumping on the Avs bandwagon. Makar and Mackinnon are my favorite non-Flames players in the league

I’m in baseball mode now. I won’t be watching any playoff games but I’m firmly in the anyone but Edmonton camp. I’ll watch when a team has 3 wins in the finals. I love the celebration and cup presentation.

I tried to come up with a team I actually like and I guess it's... just Carolina. And not really strongly either.

So yeah, whoever is playing Edmonton and Toronto.

Panthers and Oilers to lose.

So my playoff viewing will end by Round 1.
