Is anyone cheering for the Edmonton Oilers as the only Candian team alive?

I thought about it and decided I want McDavid to win a cup...that way he can walk away in a few years as a UFA and come home not owing anything to Edmonton and can fulfill a childhood dream. I also think the world is flat...;)

Nope, until OUR LEAFS win another Cup, and break the hapless streak, I ain't cheering for another Canadian based team ever.

If the fans of other Canadian NHL teams weren't such pricks towards OUR LEAFS, I might be able to cheer for their teams. Until they respect MY TEAM, I will HATE THEIR TEAMS !!!

McDavid is leaving Edmonton regardless of if he wins a cup there or not. I expect him to come to Toronto, but if it looks like the Leafs are headed for yet another rebuild at that point, he'll go somewhere else to win.

Yep, so he can come home to our Leafs and the country club with no desire to win a cup !!! No thanks to that !!!

Come home and win it for us, or win it in Edmonton and retire there !!!

generally they aren't pricks towards OUR LEAFS, rather OUR LEAFS FANS.
 
I used to always watch the playoffs and cheer for any Canadian team remaining. I was so heartbroken when the Oilers lost in 06, same when Ottawa lost, and again for Vancouver. But when the Leafs lost in 2013, I really haven't watched any playoffs since then except for the Leafs.
 
I’m cheering for them but it is kinda watching Hyman play awesome for them

It would be neat to see the Cup won by a Canadian franchise again, and I'd only cheer any other team on for that specific reason. Still, I'd actually rather see Colorado win that series...*cough* hockey pool *cough*. ;)

The thing is...if he doesn't win it in Edmonton he probably won't leave because it will look like a guy running away from a problem. If he wins...he can say he just wants to win with Toronto. I see it as a good thing if he wins it in the next few years. Especially if AM takes off and leaves us...chances are even higher he comes home and not because of cap reasons.

He needs to COME HOME in the next year or two, otherwise he'll be coming home on the downside of his career.
 
I normally switch to Tampa as my other team and somewhat enjoy their success. But clearly not after this year. Maybe the Avs because they’re fun. But not really. Nothing feels good. I just want chaos.

Battle of the Cap Casualties, Kadri vs Hyman.

I like players on both teams and never really interact with fans of other teams so that's not a factor for me.

So we shouldn't resign Matthews in two years?
