Non-Minnesota NHL News XI

[Jaykay]

I'll be cheering for the Isles or Boston (just because I picked them to win it)

Blues in the west I guess

 

[NHL1674]

Ohhh...yes....all Team Islanders the rest of this round. Would be golden to see the Pens upset in the 1st.

 

[Ladde]

I am really starting to like the Sens too.

 

[Avder]

I'm kind of torn on the Sharks. The whole pickles incident still pisses me off, and I dislike havlat a lot. But the Sharks are one of the good parts of the North Stars legacy, and a team I've loved for a while.

Now, the Sens on the other hand I can fully get behind. Watching their games with Montreal has been a blast each time. If and when the Wild are eliminated, I'm gonna get a bandwagon avatar.

And I would like to see the Islanders take out the Pens. I like the Pens. They were my team during the dark years between the North Stars and the Wild, but they're a different team now, arrogant, with an exaggerated sense of entitlement.

Plus, I just love a good underdog story.

 

[Sharppi]

I'll cheer for the Caps, Holtby is superawesome and Ovie is da man.

 

[forthewild]

I'm rooting for Sens, I love the way Karlsson plays the game so that's my deciding factor.

 

[Ceekayn]

A Blues vs. Sens final would be fun to watch!

 

[Jarick]

Vanny getting swept is pretty awesome.

 

[Lapa]

Not really sure who's bandwagon I'm going to jump in if we're eliminated.

Leafs? Sharks? Pens? One those, maybe.

 

[Haite]

Bright spot of the day.

Isles, Sens, Sharks are all good bandwagons to join.

 

[Lapa]

I'm thinking Sharks. Even more so now that they eliminated Vancouver.

 

[Haite]

I'm rooting for Minnesota Wild.

 

[Caior89]

If wild lose.
Sharks. Burns and Havlat are awesome.

Funny to see VAN getting swept after a lot of their fans said we would be.

lol Canucks lost because of the refs...

 

[Jarick]

I'm going Blues. I like Brett Hull, David Perron, and Backes.

Out East, I've always liked the Pens but wouldn't mind Caps winning either. I'd love to see Ovy and Green hoist the Cup or Crosby get another ring.

 

[MuckOG]

I'm going to be rooting for a Hawks/Pens Finals..let's face it, they're the two best teams and it would be cool to see how they would match up with each other.... plus there's something to be said that if you are going to lose, better to lose to the eventual Cup champs.

 

[Avder]

Chicago isnt going to be going anywhere. Once they're finished with us, we've provided the rest of the field with a blueprint for how to take the Hawks off their game.

moral victory. Wild lasted longer against a superior opponent than the Canucks.


still say the sharks somehow win the cup this year.

Is that like calling the Kettle Black?

This Boston / Toronto game is awesome. I wish Wild games were 1/10th as exciting as this

That GIF is amazing. What a sequence.

What an amazing game in Toronto. The Leafs aren't quite there yet - I think they need more experience in the mental side of things - but boy do they have skill. Remind me a lot of the 2008-09 Hawks team. It's a roster I wish the Wild had right now. Only one player in the lineup tonight was over 30, and that's a 31 year-old enforcer. That's how you rebuild for the long haul.
