I hate them but they are good

Go Canada... But it's a struggle to root for Toronto.

I just heard the Isles have the #1 pick for the draft.  We might actually be good again.  Holy sheeeeeit.

Too many of the "every team has them" type of fans in my day to day.
Plus I'm a Habs fan

asshole fans? know it all fans? bandwagon fans? and do most fans of one canadian hockey team dislike all the other canadian teams?

All of the above. No, I don't think most fans of one Canadian team dislike all others but there are regional rivalries.  You won't find many Leafs fans that like Montreal, you won't find any fans of Ottawa that like Toronto, and you won't find any fans of Calgary that like Edmonton.
I am going for Edmonton this year, although they don't really look like they've got it.

As a Leafs fan, I hate the Habs and Sens and if they are ever playing for Stanley Cup, I still won’t cheer for them, even though Canadian teams. Lots of Canadian players on the other teams. If I recall, I believe Vegas has the most Canadian players in their line up

During the regular season in winnipeg, there are so many leafs and havs jerseys at our games since there was no other canadian teams to root for in the early days them from 95-11, same thing. 

You only see western canadian jerseys if those teams play here.

I would cheer for Winnipeg, Edmonton Calgary & Vancouver though

I think Vancouver fans are cool with fans of all other Canadian team except for Toronto, lol.

That’s a good principle right there. In a previous era you might call it the Claude Lemieux rule

I'd love to see Toronto vs. Winnipeg.   Even would take Toronto vs. Edmonton. Would be cool.

Utah Mammoth have huge banners on every freeway pedestrian overpass. If i were s fan, I’d be doing s midnight cut down…but I’m not a fan. I also didn’t stand in line yesterday to buy some swag and give the billionaire owner more money. Fuck him.

yeah, winnipeg won't be in it. in the regular season, you can get away with starting slow the first third or half of your game, relying on your vezna goalie, but that doesn't fly in the playoffs. especially when your regular season vezna goalie isn't necessarily a playoff vezna goalie.

Come on Hugh

A little positive visualization... imagine the Jets and Oilers in the next round, that would be fantastic. 

Jets or Oilers vs. The Leafs for the cup (and I hate the Leafs)

Canadians can dream lol

I'm just gonna remain happy about game 7 v the Blues. That memory will live on for a long, long time in my neck of the woods. 

Wobbie

double 🤮

HughFreakingDillon

Great game by the Jets. But now 2 in Dallas…

Vitalogensia

Just gotta steal one.  I think they'll do it.  I see this series going the distance.

Florida is like Lazarus, rising from the dead. They were done early second period.

Counter argument.
The Leafs are all time chokers. Always stealing defeat from the jaws of victory.
