Assuming it's not your team, who would you like to see win The Cup?

[pheasant]

I'm not asking for a prediction for who you think will win. But your preference for who you want to win.

Knowing most (soon all) of the playoff teams, pick the one you want to see lift the cup the most, assuming it's not your team. And why?

Nashville. The team should be rewarded for consistent and competent management of the team. It seems like they just churn out elite d-men every few years, and a new one steps up to replace them every time one leaves.

As much as I've come to dislike Nashville, I would like to see them win it if the Jets are knocked out. Break the curse of the PT winners and to pass the torch to a new team and not the regulars over the past years. Also Toronto or Washington as well in the east. Because Canada or Ovi

 

[Stephen Gionta]

Devils fan. So Devils.

But if Devils didn't make the playoffs, I like Anaheim and Nashville. Always loved Getzlaf and now they have Henrique too. and for Nashville, love the city. went to game 4 vs Penguins last year. best game

 

[JETZZZ]

Oilers. I dont know how they will manage this being eliminated and all, but I think well all be pretty impressed to see them do the impossible and win the cup

 

[Note Worthy]

Boston. For David Backes.

Yep. Also would like to see P.K. lift a Cup and really stick it to the Habs organization. Preds are just a well run organization in general, great fan base too. They're my team out west for sure.

 

[Jim Turcotte]

Bruins fan, I would like to see the Jets take it home. I love that teams combination of skill, size and physicality.

 

[bukwas]

I think Minnesota would be my choice or St. Louis if they make it.
Reason being they've been around a long time and haven't cashed in yet, lost their team and i like a lot of their players.
St. Louis because they're a team i've enjoyed watching for many many years, love Pietrangelo and Parayko on that back end and their fans deserve the satisfaction.

Maybe it's just fond memories of the defunct Smythe division. It was a war every time teams in that division hooked up.

 

[Jim Turcotte]

Correct me if I’m wrong but St. Louis has been eliminated.

 

[Note Worthy]

Correct me if I’m wrong but St. Louis has been eliminated.

Nope, it will come down to tomorrow night in Colorado to determine who gets in. There are a number of factors on how it would work out depending on if we win tonight in Chicago or not but the short story is if we win in Colorado tomorrow then we are in.

Correct me if I’m wrong but St. Louis has been eliminated.

No they have not..

Boston would be okay for me. Philly, Washington, Leafs
.
Do not want to see Nashville, Tampa, Columbus, Vegas, they need more suffering time Then again if they won, I probably still would be okay with it, well not Vegas

Okay with Jets, since those fans lost their team and suffered the worst fate as a result for many years

Seems I am conflicted on this subject

 

[bukwas]

Correct me if I’m wrong but St. Louis has been eliminated.

Not yet.

 

[DEVILS130]

Nashville, San Jose, Washington, Toronto...in that order probably

Edit: I'd add Anaheim to that list too bc of Henrique

 

[Flgatorguy87]

If not Nashville then Columbus. I like Seth Jones and want to see him do well.

 

[Rebels57]

1. Nashville
2. Winnipeg
3. Minnesota

 

[bobholly39]

My favorite team is habs. 2nd favorite is Pittsburgh. And I also love PK

So Pittsburg or Nashville

If I can't pick those - Washington. Only if Ovechkin has a stellar smythe run.

 

[HOUSUTON]

Boston

 

[viper0220]

1.) Toronto
2.) Las Vegas
3.) Nashville
4.) Winnipeg

Really really really hope that one of these teams win the Stanley Cup.

HM to OV go #8

OK, thanks.

 

[HoliksGhost]

Underdog. Always go with the underdog.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Vegas and Nashville are the big 2 teams I want to see win. Especially Vegas, that would be really awesome to see.

The teams I want to see the cup win the least are Washington and Boston. Philly is up there, too.

 

[brewski420]

As a Pens fan I, surprisingly enough, would like to see OV get a cup. Otherwise I would like to see a Canadian Cup winner probably preferring the Jets.

 

[Groo]

The Wild or the Jets
To heck with the Preds. They turned into such a greasy team

 

[Royale With Cheese]

If it's not my Jets, I would like to see Nashville win it. They've been good for so long, have a good goalie, and they just seem so well managed. Good fans, good game atmosphere as well.

Maybe an honourable mention to the Caps for most of the same reasons. Plus Ovi's an old man now, if it's going to happen, it needs to be soon.
