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

[nilan30]

Habs fan here.

In the east I’d like to see Florida. I know many dont like them but I still love the greasy style of hockey they play. Reminds me of 90s hockey somewhat.

In the west I’ll go 1. Winnipeg, 2. Edmonton 3. Vancouver. I’m not usually one of those guys who care much about other Canadian teams but id like to see any of those three win it.

That said I probably won’t watch much. It’s Blue Jays season.

 

[Riseonfire]

If not the Isles.... Probably Edmonton. I'd like to see McDavid get a ring.

 

[roon]

Wild fan - F everyone else in the Central, hope you all are 1st round exits.

Probably rooting for Edmonton - McDavid deserves one.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Pens fan for the Canes because of Guentzel.

 

[viceroy]

If the Habs ain't in I always root for the never winners. Was very happy when St.Louis and Washington won theirs. So in order of age I'd say VAN 1st, then WPG, then NSH and then FLA. If not them I guess the Isles.

 

[Super Cake]

If/when the Knights are out, i am out.

I mean i may catch a game or two, but i generally don't follow another team if the Knights get kicked out.

Wild fan - F everyone else in the Central, hope you all are 1st round exits.

I've got some bad news for you...

 

[habsterr]

Canadians teams all the way except Toronto.

1. Edmonton
2. Vancouver
3. Winnipeg

 

[The Note]

Toronto. Love the city, like a lot of their players. Plus like 90% of this board would be seething. Won’t happen, but that’s part of the Maple Leafs Experience

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Probably pulling for the Canes and the Panthers in the East and the Preds and Jets in the West.

 

[tmg]

As a Devils and Sens fan (double ouch!) … when all else fails I tend to root for offensive star firepower that hasn’t won before.

So my preferences will tend towards Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver - not out if any ‘Canadian teams’ preference, but just because I find those to be the teams with the most exciting offensive corps, excluding the likes of Tampa Colorado and Vegas who have won before and I’ll almost always prefer seeing new stars raise the cup than reruns.

 

[Zalos]

Toronto and Edmonton.

After that, Tampa Bay would be cool.

But overall, I'll just enjoy the playoffs.

 

[StrawHatEklund]

Leafs as I was born in the GTA and my dad’s side is from there. Stars cause Pavelski.

 

[LudwigVonKarlsson]

If/when the Knights are out, i am out.

I mean i may catch a game or two, but i generally don't follow another team if the Knights get kicked out.

Who were you watching before Vegas came into the league?

 

[Mattilaus]

The Avalanche. We need more centres leaving Buffalo and having great success to show just how much of a shit show Buffalo is. So Casey needs a cup.

 

[LarKing]

Edmonton, Florida, or Carolina if Detroit doesn't make it

 

[MMC]

I hate every team in the playoffs

 

[Canadian Finn]

as long as it's not the leafs......right?

any Canadian team winning would be nice.

 

[hangman005]

I hate every team in the playoffs

Well everyone hates us, wouldn't you be more comfortable hating us from the band wagon... we have recliners.

 

[Trabdy2]

Habs fan.

I'd like to see the Jets win. But it'll make the 1st round pick the Habs got from them worse. Conflicted about this.

It would be highly amusing to see Penguins squeak in and then win the cup.

 

[LuGBuG]

Prefer Colorado, Leafs, Islanders, Jets, Canucks, Rangers…..

Really as long as it’s not Oilers or Kings I’m fine with anyone.

 

[PuckG]

If not Edmonton, the Red Wings (if they make it) or the Rangers.

 

[Terry Yake]

panthers

 

[Beendair Donedat]

Habs fan, living in Edmonton. I’d like to see the Oilers win one, McDavid is a such a treat to watch play, as well as Draisaitl (who I think is a better playoff player but that’s just my 0.02$).

I’ll also be vocally cheering for anyone but Toronto, Boston or Vegas.

@super6646

I EAGERLY AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE.

There’s only one player in the league who can have my babies and saved Christmas in NYC. He might live in the heart of the research triangle, but he’s won my heart 1000x over. He’s the single greatest athlete in Raleigh history.

Don Wendell and the canes are the best things to happen in nhl history after Brady Skjei ffs! There’s only one answer!
