Men's Ice Hockey NHL 2023 - 2024

Honestly, I don’t get the “if it’s not us, I want it to be a Canadian team” statement. 
 

OK, sure the last Canadian team to win a Stanley Cup was a while ago back in 1993…. But not sure why it matters, its not like this is the Olympics 

 

First of all, if you’re a true fan of your team (and not a casual), you’d root for your team/s (in some scenarios like my buddy TopicMaster1010) to win and them only. I myself, only root for the Canucks. That being said, there’s some teams that I hate that I root AGAINST (Bruins, Golden Knights, Leafs, Oilers)

 

Secondly, for Canucks fans, you don’t just root for the team that JUST eliminated you from the playoffs. 

 

Don’t get me started on McDavid and Crysaitl. Draisaitl is so fucking pissy, and McDavid complains about everything. Media glazes him like crazy too. 

 

Just a little rant.

Exactly, the Panthers are one of those teams for me. In this case, I don't like Mathew Tkachuk, Nick Cousins and Sam Bennett. And as a fan of the sport, it would be cool to see McDavid finally win a cup. In 2018, I also was rooting for the Caps so Ovechkin could finally win a cup too. So this is an easy choice for me. To each their own I guess.

 

I'll be happy for Barkov and Bobrovsky though.

Wait, people care about the playoffs once their team is eliminated? I've barely watched any games since the regular season was over.

 

That said, a small part of me would find it hilarious if Edmonton never won the cup after they got so many years of draft luck. So, Go Panthers, I guess.

Care, not really. Watch, absolutely. 
 

I love hockey

Yeah, Looks like a generic default logo from a Nintendo game. Should be a massive marketing flop.

Florida Panthers win 4-3 against the Edmonton Oilers in game 3, despite a furious attempt at a comeback by the Oilers in the late stages of the 3rd period. One win away from the Stanley Cup!
