My wife's aunt watches barely any regular season and doesn't really have a team. Then when playoffs hit she watches as many games as she possibly can and cheers for all the Canadian teams. It's pretty crazy to see a barely casual fan become a hardcore NHL fan for playoffs.

I believe.

The Winnipeg Jets' biggest rivals are all AHL teams.

I kind of feel that had the Flames beaten the Sharks in the first round and won 2 games against the Ducks (losing twice in OT) I and everyone else at CP would be fully on the Flames bandwagon.





Are the Flames expected to be heavy favorites to do better than the Oilers next season?

What the hell is this?

If there is a God, the Oilers will lose. Then if there is a God the following will happen
1) Draisaitl signs in Edmonton for 8.5 million a year (seems possible, his second year was better than Tarasenko's and his third year was better than Tarasenko's)
2) McDavid signs for 15 million dollars a season.
3) Russell is signed to a 5 year deal for 4.15 million a year to solidify the defence long term.
4) Pitlick is signed by Vegas and is the player the Oilers lose in the expansion draft

I would say everything on that list outside of Russell has a decent chance of happening. Then over the next two seasons, if Talbot could start 142 regular season games minimum over that time and then sign an 8 year 48 million dollar deal and then have a bit of a slowdown to Garon levels, all would be right in the world.

If they're not a mod yet, they should be given mod priveledges ASAP.

Some of the most consistently accurate commentary on this board, from someone I've never seen make a comment.

A Flames fan openly cheering for the Oilers should result in a temporary bannin.

Bannin ain't the thing in such a case. I recommend shunnin. Let them hang out with the other Oiler fans.

I have been on this forum for over a decade and only just discovered this feature a few months ago. It has changed my life.

What never changes is the no-goodness of Edmonton.
