Teams you're supposed to hate but are rooting for.

[Calgarybrutalist]

Supposed to hate the Ducks, but can't help but root for them. I want to see Getzlaf get a Cup as captain.

 

[Ctrain2k]

Oilers fan rooting for LA

 

[JoVel]

I should be hating the Flyers since everyone does but I'll root for them until they face the Lightning.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Rooting for Washington, although I don't like their logo.

 

[wingman75]

when the leafs are out, boston

Probably same for me... at least in round 2... I tend to re-evaluate for every round tho lol

 

[Its a Trap]

I guess you missed the part of the title that said "supposed to hate".

Nope didn’t miss a thing.

 

[KingBran]

Yup, Blues fan rooting for the Avs. Really anyone who plays the Preds. I love all my Preds friends here on this forum though

WPG also, because of Stastny.

And the Knights because... why not?

I always root for CBJ just because I like underdogs and its fun when an unpopular team wins things.

But yeah, being a Blues fan rooting for COL and WPG probably fits the bill here.

 

[JCRO]

Flyers

I second this.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I don't really have any teams I hate outside of the Leafs series itself. Neutral series I just always hope for as many OT games as possible and root for game 7's.

 

[mitchmagic]

Leafs. I don't buy into the historic rivalry. They're a good young team and hope they have success -- wish we could play them.

 

[northeastern]

Caps... I'm not supposed to but go ovie. Nashville is my #2 caps are 3rd maybe though

 

[EclecticDarkness]

As a Caps fan I’m rooting for the Flyers

 

[Russian Factor]

I hate all of the teams I'm supposed to, most of the ones I don't have to, and even a lot of the ones I'm not supposed to. I wish none of them success.

My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone.

 

[The Apologist]

Pittsburgh because of Sid I guess. Chearing for them and Phil again though. Until they meet my Leafs.

 

[Not So Mighty]

I'm rooting for the Kings because I want to beat them.

 

[b in vancouver]

Bruins fan. In the East I gotta say Philadelphia. If the Bruins bow out, I how they or New Jersey come out of the East as they're the only other two teams that haven't built through the old 'Oh, lets suck for years and try to get as many high draft picks as we can.' At least the Flyers and Devils try to ice competitive teams every year.

 

[PredsV82]

I dont mind rooting for the Blues to win their golf matches against the Blackhawks...

 

[John Price]

Go Philly beat PITT

 

[Los Patos de Anaheim]

If the Ducks lose in the 1st round, I'm hoping San Jose wins the cup. Cheered for them in 2016 also.

 

[Jray42]

I'm suppose to hate the Flyers as a Islanders fan but I will be rooting for them the whole way.

Flyers

[KnightofBoston]

The caps, because I hate Torteralla and want to see his universe burn

Flyers, because Penguins

 

[Fatty McLardy]

i see people are scared of the penguins....i like that

 

[3074326]

I should hate Columbus, but I live here and can't. No matter how rough the rivalry gets.

 

[BrendanGallagher11]

Go Bruins
shut those laffs up

 

[Wolf Larsen]

If the Pens lose, I'd prefer Vegas to win. Barring that (and I'm sure until the Penguins actually play them), I wouldn't mind seeing Ovechkin and the Caps win it all.

Not the Bruins, though -- any team with Marchand is always going to be on the no likey list.
