This was taken off the main page for some reason, but I asked them, as a fan, what are your opinions of the other 29 teams in the NHL... ie, The Wild are boring to watch and play a defensive system, or The Panthers play a chippy game etc.
Canucks dive.
Oilers will be great in 10 years.
Red Wings get away with anything.
Penguins is Crosby is Penguins is Crosby is Penguins.
Bruins are physical.
Islanders were good in the 80's, just before the Oilers got really good. Now they are not.
NJ traps.
Wild traps.
Wild is boring
Wild plays boring trap.
Rangers throw big money to all UFA's.
Montreal pays extra for French-Canadian players.
Ottawa hates Heatley.
Sharks FAIL the postseason.
Coyotes defend their way to playoffs and win some rounds.
Everybody hates Ducks, excluding Selänne, as they are *****es.
Kings are big and tough.
Chicago has a great top-6 and awesome top-2 and fluky goaltending.
Blues has no top line yet they defend as one unit and are a ***** to play against.
Jets have 7 players on the ice when they play at home.
Philadelphia has worst goaltending in the world, and awesome offensive flair in their game.
Toronto fails with playoffs.
That's what I came up with. Not only playstyle things but things that come up generally when I think about a team stereotype.
