The horrifying thing is that Edmonton fans are so arrogant right now that they are almost making Vancouver fans (who I previously thought had the worst small-dick energy on the planet when it comes to everything Toronto-related) seem semi-tolerable IMO? Or maybe I'm losing it because Vancouver can honestly eff off too.
I want to root for Winnipeg in theory because I like small markets that are actually passionate about hockey but their fans make it completely 110% impossible. The only other Canadian team I can stomach is Calgary.

Honestly, I don't have the same vitriol towards the other Western Canadian teams. It would be epic if Toronto made the finals and faced off against one of those teams. Much better than freaking Vegas getting there. If you gave me a choice between any of those American teams or Western Canadian teams making the finals, I am choosing Western Canada. f*** Vegas, Cali, Colorado, etc.
Agreed, a nucks leafs Stanley cup final would be epic
Gary Bettman obviously

4 of those teams are Boston, Florida, NYR, and the Canucks. Even if they were soft as butter I wouldn’t expect a 100 point pace against them with the seasons they’re having.

I have never known a person that cheers for Edmonton or Winnipeg
People that have to watch it.

I would rather watch Western Canadian team in the playoffs than a host of US markets. As would millions of Canadians.

The one thing that happened during Riellys suspension is that Liljegren really elevated his game in the last couple weeks. I hope he can continue this trend and keep getting minutes.

Please don't break up Brodie-Liljegren.

Putting Brodie back on the right side would be a bit more ludicrous than splitting up Brodie and Lily based on how they’ve elevated their games playing with each other. Ease Rielly back in putting him with Rifai for a few games.

Brad REALLY needs to make a trade for a RHD
It’s not even about fit, we don’t actually have another nhl level RD to play with Rielly. Rafai and Lajoie are not options
Whether it’s a #4 who meshes well with Rielly (lyubushkin, schenn) or it’s an actual top 4 RHD

None of Vancouver, Edmonton or Winnipeg would ever root for the Leafs. I never hear a positive word about the Leafs from any of these three fanbases.

Personally, the Canadiens are pretty much the only Canadian team other the Leafs that I have cheered for in the playoffs. I actively dislike Ottawa and Winnipeg for various reasons. And frankly, just have no connection to Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton.
I see No reason to think of Canadian-based teams any differently than American-based teams. They're all just NHL teams.
If he does this and Vegas smokes us tonight, then somebody has to publicly call him out on it. Whether that be a player on the team, a member of the media, Shanny, Treliving etc.
No. McCabe has looked too good with Benoit. Reilly has to be paired with the number 6 guy for right now whoever that may be. Until they lose a game at the absolute earliest.
Which is fine.
I have no problem with cheering for any Canadian team in the playoffs. (Ottawa and Montreal are pretty hard). But I don't expect anyone else has too just because we are Canadians

I'm very reluctant to break up the bruise brothers as well.

My worst fear is that Rielly comes back and Keefe puts Brodie back on the right and we are horrible. Faith in the team has been restored and we are in a playoff spot ahead of the bolts by a few games.
I do not want to Cue the meme of Frye, wondering "not sure if we suck with Rielly - Or the team just rallied with Rielly.
Montreal is next for me as well since I have some roots there.
Vancouver is after that, but at a lesser extent.
I do however think that a Canadian team with the cup is absolutely 1000000% prefered over USA teams. Its more than just NHL teams IMO.
