I have absolutely no issues with any of these teams winning...

Ducks - Kesler :allears:
Rangers - Seeing Dr AV raise the cup would own
Hawks - Love Toews and Hossa :gizz:
Bolts - Always been cool in my book, plus Garrison is awesome

hey did you guys know that MSL used to play for the lightning?

I will be mocking that and him in GDTs. I'm my own posting crush.

This is gonna be good as hell

But, I don't think MSL plays for NYR anymore, nobody has seen him for several games.

I don't care who wins from here on out, so long as it's not the Ducks. It would be preferable for an Eastern team to win it because gently caress the Kings and Blackhawks. All these teams have won a cup before so there's no real underdog.

Lumping the Rangers in as a "same old poo poo/already won" team with 3 teams that have won the cup in 2004, 2007, and 2010/13 respectively when the Rangers haven't won in 20+ years is silly.

Not to act like they are big underdogs or anything but they aren't exactly a dynasty :shrug:

Also Rangers/Lightning is gonna be a killer series and probably lots of fun especially if MSL wakes up.

The Rangers' cup was a generation ago. The choice is clear imo.

I meant more in the sense that they made the SCF last year, and more to the fact that there are still teams in the NHL with 0 cups. I guess they would be underdogs if they were to face Chicago or Anaheim. Don't get me wrong, I'm rooting for whoever comes out of the East because gently caress Anaheim.

The Lightning are my preferred choice going forward. Chicago is also acceptable because it's cool how good they are every year and I want to see what they can do. Plus their fans here are nice and good.

I find the Rangers boring and I don't really like them. Outside of Lundqvist, McDonagh and Stepan, there's no one on that team that I'd like to see win a championship.

I used to not have a problem with Anaheim, I was even rooting for them when they won in 07, but they don't have Selanne anymore and ever since what's his face started posting here it's made me dislike them more and more each year.

Dan Girardi is also cool even if he's an advanced stats nightmare. I find it hard to not respect the guy who sacrifices his body that much for the team, has only missed like 2 games in his career, and was an undrafted free agent signing who started his pro career in the ECHL

yeah but if you're an original six team you should have like a half dozen cup wins by now at least which is more than enough for anybody and if you don't you should only be scorned for your historical ineptitude

I think out of the teams remaining the Rangers probably have the most likeable players. I mean:

Lundqvist - So dreamy :gay:
Hagelin - Looks like a huge dork
Zucc - An extra from The Hobbit films
MSL - Power midget
Girardi & Moore speak for themselves.
