I think Vancouver still needs another year to build more grit before they make a deep run but I'm happy that they are in the playoffs.
Growing up in the Niagara Region in Ontario, we used to follow the Leafs so I'd also like to see them get to the finals but they have a habit of not finishing well and getting knocked out early.

My team (NJ) is out of it, so I'm rooting for my 2nd favorite (I know the owners)

Easy to do, sports fans are drowning in gambling marketing.
"since 1962. the year he was discovered." Been a long gap for Leafs fans.

They look pretty damn good, too.
The MN Wild aren't technically out of the playoffs, but they may as well be making reservations for tee times in May. |
The company my oldest son works for owns the Dallas Stars so we had mixed feelings last week when Dallas was in town and beat us and we had to wait a few more days to clinch a playoff berth. I could see that my son was a bit on the fence during the game but was happy with the outcome.
We got are asses kicked last night though. |
I'm sure he is also well aware of the disdain most MN fans have for Dallas.

They take their share of lumps, too. Just not with intention, usually.

Been watching PWHL the last couple weeks. Good hockey, free to watch, and all games are on youtube. Honestly, it's pretty exciting and fun to watch. I've really been enjoying seeing Minnesota play tough.
Have not seen an entire NHL game yet this season, just highlights and part of the game that was on ABC last Saturday.

The Vancouver Canucks are finding ways to win a lot of games this season. Hopefully it's not just another year where all the other teams in the league are playing poorly.....

Too skinny for the Donner party. Except as a cart skid.
Nice blue lines though.
