Hard to root for Stan Bowman, but I would like McDavid to win a Cup* Archived Message

 Previous Message Previous Message Getting bored with all the Florida, Carolina, Tampa Bay, Dallas, Colorado, Vegas stuff every year. Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Buffalo, New York (Islanders) are all varying degrees of ass, with teams like Minnesota, New Jersey, St. Louis, and the Rangers also not represented past round one this year. I’ll still watch some of it, but a Florida/Carolina series just takes me out of it, even if they’re probably the two best teams. Previous Message
Riding with Canada as always, put in a couple championship futures on Toronto and Winnipeg respectively. Both will surely be losing bets and are based on no actual knowledge so I wouldn’t suggest tailing, but I like rooting for the Canadian teams and the Jets being at 10/1 despite being a top seed was tempting.
