This. It's not just true about Leafs fans. They're just more numerous than other fanbases. Segregating poll options as such to dismiss the opinion of a certain group amongst a population removes any statistical validity a poll might have, since you want the population that responds to the poll to be representative of the population in general. You can be interested in knowing what a certain group within a population thinks, but you can't dismiss their opinion. Basic stats 101 stuff.Most people in general vote neutral when they are nothing close to neutral, which makes those split polls even more useless than your average poll. They are used to dismiss opinions, in order to manufacture a result.
Unfortunately, that also isn't the case with most polls here as polls involving Team A and Team B are going to attract a proportion of fans from Team A and Team B (and haters if I may say) that is not representative of the overall hockey fanbase.
