What team should we support in the playoffs

What team should this board support for the playoffs?

my vote goes whatever team is playing Vancouver and support Ott in the east

Ottawa in the East and...Vancouver ONLY if they are one game away from winning the Cup UNLESS they are playing Ottawa.

No... Vancouver losing in a SCF Game 7 would be even more satisfying than last year. But hopefully they're out in the first round or two.

I guess I'm rooting for the Sens, Flyers, Blues, and Predators, but I won't exactly be depressed when they start getting knocked out. It'd be cool if one of them won the Cup. Maybe Florida for the "lol" factor. Just don't want the Canucks to win it, that's the most important.

Whichever team plays Vancouver and Ottawa. I personally want to see the Oilers win the Stanley Cup before the other Canadian teams do.

Whoever is playing against Vancouver. Wouldn't mind seeing the Sens go for a little run, but they have no hope in hell of getting past the likes of the bruins, rangers and penguins.

Assuming standings as of right now, here is who I'm cheering for:

NYR over WSH
OTT over BOS
FLA over NJ
PIT over PHI

SJ over VAN
STL over PHX
LA over CHI
NAS over DET

The team's I'll actively cheer for, though, are limited to Nashville, Ottawa...and maybe NYR.

This board should be supporting the Kings. They have a handful of formers, and they battled hard to get into the playoffs the last month and a half.

I predict an LA-Pitts Stanley Cup Final

Looked at their roster and agreed--then I saw the human slug on their 3rd line LW and just can't

What's the condition on that 2012 3rd again? Didn't it have something to do with LA winning the cup?

I'm pulling for NYR in the East, and LAK in the West. If LA somehow won, it would cap the biggest roller coaster year of all time. As for NYR, I just like the depth of that team, good up front, great on the back end, and amazing in net.

I hate the Pens, so I will never cheer for them.

I'll just be hoping to watch some good hockey. Of course I'll cheering against the Canucks but....they're looking like they're going to win it all.

Can't wai for Pens/Flyers and I hope Hawks/Canucks meet in the second round. Chicago can stop the Canucks, the rest I don't like their chances.

We get a 3rd regardless how LA does this year. If LA won the cup last year we would have got their 2nd, that was the condition.
