GDT: 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs & Bandwagon Thread

[JoVel]

So which bandwagon will you guys be jumping on? That's if you even feel like watching hockey after what just happened.

I think I'll go with Columbus. Going all-in on the TDL which many (myself included) had doubts about and then sweeping this juggernaut they shouldn't have had any chances against. Would be quite a story if they could lift the Cup.

From the West I wouldn't complain if either Blues or Preds won it all.

I'll set up a poll after the first round is finished since quite a few teams will be eliminated within a week.

Islanders for me.

 

[Stormbreaker]

After this catastrophic disaster of a post-season I don't think I can build up the courage to watch anymore hockey this year.

 

[Lightning1995]

I’m out

 

[Hint1k]

I am going to watch all games in playoff as usual. The most interesting team left is Blues, they were crazy hot at the end of the season and now playing with the heavy western favorite.

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

I'm on the anti-Bruins wagon. And, if the Bruins get eliminated, then I'm on nobody's wagon, because I won't care who wins or loses at that point. So hopefully the Leafs finish the job ASAP.

I'm gonna be descending into full-blown apathy anyway; might as well get a head start on it. I want to enjoy hockey; f*ck the specific teams.

Now this is a true hockey fan.

Not me. The Lightning have ruined the NHL for me. Go Rays!

I will be supporting Dallas followed by San Jose.

 

[DaBolts]

No bandwagon, no preference. Will watch some of the games, would love to see a Columbus-Vegas or Columbus-Winnipeg SCF just to watch the commish crap himself over the TV ratings and see what his "parity" has wrought.

 

[These Are The Days]

We should do a fan draft...

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Preds/islanders

 

[BowDownToVasilevskiy]

I have got a couple options
San Jose - Want to see Joe Thornton win a cup
St.Louis - Love Pietrangelo, and predicted them to go to the final before the season started.
Dallas - Ben Bishop

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

Columbus winning might actually help Cooper keep his job, so not them. Otherwise, would have totally been on board with cheering for them.

I'll go with St. Louis

 

[Hoek]

I can't find a reason to hate Columbus, so them. Anyone in the West is fine with me, too.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Carolina - just because it would be fun to see the 'jerks' win it all.
St. Louis - they've never won a Cup yet
Dallas - Ben Bishop
Columbus - after 20 years with no playoff series wins, it would be good to see them go all the way. Just wish it hadn't have been through us.

 

[LightningStrikes]

In the East I'll root for the Isles and probably Columbus. In the West it's the Jets and Stars for me.

 

[Steazy Doo]

I'd like to see the Blue Jackets keep going.

 

[Coopers Gum]

I'd like to see the Blue Jackets keep going.

Yeah, same. Wouldn't mind if they took it all.

Then we have lost to the cup champs a zillion times.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

I'd like to see the Blue Jackets keep going.

If they could knock out the winner of Toronto/Boston, that'd be great.

 

[JoVel]

Leafs-Bruins looking to be another long series. If we don't want our choke job to be the biggest talking point here this off season then we should cheer for the Leafs to win the Cup.

That would definitely take the spotlight away from us LOL

 

[berlin]

Calgary, San Jose, St. Louis

 

[Stammertime91]

Dallas and Columbus

 

[The Gongshow]

Vegas

 

[God King Fudge]

I personally hope Columbus gets smoked out asap so it will prove even more than Cooper just can't coach for ****.

Outside of that, I don't care. I don't have the heart for hockey right now.
