I love hockey!

No we aren't.

At this point, all I care about is that the series goes 7 games so I get to watch more delicious, delicious hockey.

So, at the moment, I'm a 'whichever team is behind' fan.

I sincerely hope your chosen collection of overpaid multimillionaires beats the opposing collection of overpaid multimillionaires in the sporting event.

Well.... I live in Maine... which is trapped between Boston and Canada...

Still... I AM an American so I guess I should cheer for the Bruins...

On the other hand... I've always loved a solid underdog story....

Wait a second here...

I don't even like hockey!

Bah to your clever Canadian hypnotism techniques!

I'm backing the Canucks only because the Bruins ousted my Bolts from the playoffs.

Those were VERY evenly matched teams, made for a fun (and nail biting) series to watch!

Luongo in net and Mike Milbury in broadcast booth for the Stanley Cup Finals....

...It is really, really hard being an Islander fan.

It's a good thing that I shave my head because that series increased my grey hair count considerably.

Must be your nearness to the border, I live in Colorado and I wasn't affected - I still don't like hockey.

Actual Canadian here.

Don't care who wins, just want the seven games.

On the one hand, I don't watch sports and have NEVER been interested in hockey, so I really couldn't care less.

On the other hand, I live in Seattle and my company does business in British Columbia. Meanwhile, Boston is a really long ways away and they talk funny (even funnier than those people up North, eh?). So I don't care if Boston is the American team, I owe Boston nothing. So yeah... go Canucks.

The Canadian v. US thing with this is hilarious, given it pretty much Canadians and Europeans playing on both teams....

I won't watch until they incorporate Japanese snacks into the game. Just because I can then encourage people to do the Hockey Pocky.

No, no, no! You're supposed to cheer for the team that ousts you from the playoffs. Here's the logic, and I've faced this situation extremely recently when the Falcons (GO FALCONS!!!) were ousted from the NFL playoffs by the Green Bay Packers.

My thought process is that I don't want to endure the shame of having lost to some other loser team that gets beaten in the very next round. That would mean that not only were the Packers better than the Falcons, but so are the Bears, since they would have beaten the team that beat us. And if the Bears had played in and lost the Super Bowl, so are the Steelers, because they beat the team that beat the team that beat us. If you think about it, the provably suckiest team in the playoffs last year was the Patriots. They lost to a team (the Jets--a Wild Card team, no less) that lost to a team (the Steelers) that lost to a team (the Packers). Even the Colts can take comfort in the fact that their ouster at least won the Divisional game.

As it is, though, the Packers ended up going all the way and won the Super Bowl. As far as I'm concerned, we were second best team in the league, because nobody proved otherwise. Could we have beaten the Bears like the Packers did? HELL YEAH! Could we have beaten the Steelers and won the Super Bowl? HELL YEAH! (And before you bring up week one, it was week one for crying out loud, and we lost in friggin' overtime. We were a LOT better team than the Steelers by the end.)

So yeah, we had the unfortunate luck of being knocked out early by the number one championship team in the world, so sue us. It's like losing a tennis match to Roger Federer, it's a little different than losing to Steve the guy in accounting. At least you can say, "Well, it was Roger Federer..." And when the Falcons were knocked out by the Packers (who did admittedly trounce us in our own stadium ), I immediately became a cheesehead.

"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

This. Sorry, not Canadian here. I like Canada just fine. Ontario is about a 30 minute drive from where I sit right now, depending on traffic on the Blue Water Bridge. That said, your team are still newbs to the league, while Boston is one of the Original Six, much like my Detroit Red Wings. The Bruins also have the advantage of not being Conference rivals.

Go Bruins!
