Fans of teams that aren’t in it, whose bandwagon are you jumping on?

[Shane Diesel]

Panthers

 

[Thirty Seven]

Probably the OIlers. Then this narrative that Canadian teams will never win will go away. Their fans would also kindly remind fans of the other Canadian teams of it as well.

 

[Canadiens Ghost]

Oilers, yes

Stars, yeah

Panthers, meh




Rangers, f*** no

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Anybody but Canada. Probably prefer it to not be Dallas as well.

 

[innitfam]

Dallas

The Leafs will still be better....somehow

 

[Patrik26]

DeBoer and Pavelski. Stars.

 

[PuckG]

Welcome aboard Canucks fans. We knew you’d come around to the Blue and Orange eventually.

 

[MVP Zacha]

As a Devils fan it is obvious who I want to lose, but I also love the game that Aleksander Barkov brings.

 

[Cashville]

Pulling for the Blueshirts, and specifically a NYR/EDM final. Grew up in CT (Whalers fan) before moving to Nashville, but have so many Rangers fan buddies and ok loosely pulling for an ECF team.

I also just find the NHL playoffs slightly more exciting when NYR is relevant. Old enough to remember 94 and it was just such an amazing time for hockey relevancy in the US, particularly in the tri-state area.

It is sure funny how everyone's picking Dallas to run over the Oilers. Because it would further their bias that Vancouver sucks.

If that's the case then the opposite is true. If the Oilers beat Dallas in less than 7, it means Vancouver was better than Dallas.

 

[Three On Zero]

With Vegas and Vancouver out

Florida
Dallas
New York
Edmonton

Cheering for Forsling and OEL

I think the fact they barely beat a banged up Canucks team and were exposed as a whiney/divey team, a lot of people were turned away from them. They’ve garnered quite the reputation

Rangers farm team has also been in Hartford since the Whalers left, so another tie to them for you

 

[Grub]

Canucks fan jumping on the Oilers bandwagon. Hey, if the Oilers win it at least we can say that they got beat by the champs. Have no reason to cheer for Dallas or any of the other 2 eastern teams.

Lol. I could see it now

“The oilers only won cause they got to play a Florida team that had to go through the stacked Atlantic division > : ( “

 

[TheNumber4]

Oilers were always Canada’s team but now it’s official. Time for Canada to get behind the Oilers and cheer for them to bring the Cup home.

Our HERITAGE is at stake. You either love your country or you don’t. Choose wisely.

 

[kanucks25]

Pretty much always cheer for teams that haven't won before but nobody bypasses Chris Tanev so Dallas is 1st choice with Florida being 2nd.

Take the L like a man and move on.

Only L here is this comment ^

Dallas for me. Don’t really care about NYR, Florida has way too many dirtbags and I can’t cheer for Edmonton since they’re a division rival.

I’m pretty impressed w the depth of Dallas and I’m a big fan of Wyatt Johnston.

Oh yea, and I’d love to see Tanev hoist the cup. I don’t believe there’s anyone in the league who sacrifices themselves more for the team

Florida is a bunch of diving, flopping, dirty pukes. They're like the 2011 Canucks, (minus the actual fan-base).

That said, I hope they beat the Rangers, because f*** NY, and also, the Panthers losing in the Finals again is the most pain I can wish on them and all 27 of their fans.

As for Edmonton, I'm an old bitter Bruins fan, and I still haven't gotten over the '88 and '90 Finals, lol, so I guess it's Dallas for me.

Plus it's always fun to see a long time player like Pavelski, finally break through and win one at the end of his career.

I am hoping for a Dallas/Panthers finals. Would love to see Pavelski raise the cup.
