If you're following additional team(s) going forward, who are they?

[molon labe]

I'm usually just a 1-team 1-sport person...Which is all the more reason the last few seasons of Penguins shitshow hockey have been frustrating.

Going forward, I'm going in on the home state Panthers. Next season yet to be determined but certainly the rest of this year.



...so who you all got?


(Side note: I tuned in for Ottawa as my 1 out of 4 games...and that's all I needed. Figured I'd at least get a Sid or Geno goal but holy WOOF are they absolute shit as a team.)

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Staalina Snekicanes I want that extra 1st.

 

[Borgir]

Penguins or nothing, I am a real fan.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Always half following Colorado. Vegas does cool shit and if they win, more teams will try to copy them and do cool shit. Hope Carolina makes the SCF for the 1st rounder, but Jake misses a wide open net to tie it up in game 4 as time expires and they get swept.

 

[Rudy Russo]

I'll just watch as a fan and not have to having anxiety watching the penguins in a game #7 double overtime playoff game.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Follow? None as I barely have enough free time or energy to follow the Penguins.

But I'll be cheering for certain teams.

 

[Headshot77]

The Leafs, because I want Steve Dangle to be happy.

 

[Sideline]

I'll watch the playoffs. If there's a game on while I'm working out or doing chores it might be on in the background. That's about the extent of it for me following other teams.

 

[HandshakeLine]

I don't condone or believe in bandwagoning in the NHL, I'd rather just watch our local hockey teams here or the national teams.

 

[wheelz87]

Pens are all I care about. After that, its rooting against teams.
One team I'll give 1 percent to? Colorado, simply because MacKinnon is my favorite non-Pen.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Don't really care about other teams, but....

 

[molon labe]

Of course I meant for the playoffs.... goodness. So yeah I think it's a toss up between Boston/Florida in the East and Colorado/Vegas in the West.

But surely, if things don't change before next season this may change to something entirely. There's being a fan and being...whatever the hell narcissistic stuff you'd have to be to continue watching this "product."

 

[Zbynek]

I've always followed the Devils as a secondary team. If I had to pick a team to root for in the playoffs this year I guess I'll say the Stars.

 

[Andy99]

I don’t really root for other teams…there are only teams I don’t root for…those I refuse to root for are (in no particular order) Tampa, Leafs, Bruins, Caps, Flyers and Rangers in the East…and only Oilers in the West…

 

[Wattsburgh]

I’ll be cheering for the 1st round pick we would get from Carolina if they make the Finals. How isn’t this everyone’s answer lol?

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

I’ll be cheering for the 1st round pick we would get from Carolina if they make the Finals. How isn’t this everyone’s answer lol?

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Carolina because of Jake (5 points in 4 games so far). They look like a machine right now, think they could make it out of the metro at least. Florida/Boston and then one of the western teams might be tough though.

 

[Nakawick]

I’d root for Carolina in the East and Mackinnon vs McDavid in the west.

But Pens til they are mathematically done.

 

[Pens1566]

None. No Pens in the playoffs just means I get tons of time back to do other things.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

I don't "root" for any other team, but I will root for teams like the Rags, Flyers, Bruins, Leafs and Oilers to lose.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

I root for the Vancouver Canucks as a secondary team usually. Just really liked Luongo and the Sedins. So during the playoffs them.

Toronto Maple Leafs until they lose.


Will be watching hockey less most likely but Penguins will be the main and still the main. I am ready for a 10 year rebuild of pain or something.

 

[Syrinx]

Hurricanes for Jake. Local team with lots of coverage and I go to quite a few games anyway.

 

[Allie Kitsune]

No point. Every other fanbase hates us, so I guess I want them just as miserable as they want us.

 

[HandshakeLine]

For the record, I don't mind if people have secondary teams or whatever, but I never really had much attraction to any other team in the league that wasn't my own. Even in the days when I went to a lot of Hawks games when they were terrible, I never really felt like I had any attachment to the Hawks, I just liked seeing cheap live hockey.

 

[wgknestrick]

Canes, easily. I live in Raleigh, they are a great - likeable team, and have a decent chance to make it, and aren't coached by morons. Storm Brew FN sucks ass though.
