| Yes, very much so. I hope Chris Pronger and his wife die in a horrible fire. Of the 4 remaining teams, I'd like any of the other 3 to win. Fuck Anaheim. The fans there don't even fucking know what icing is, and it's a travesty how many empty seats you see during playoff games. I also really don't much like Brian Burke (I respect him very much, the guy is an excellent GM) because he's an arrogant dick who likes to have his goons run rampant and give the game a bad name.
So yeah, I guess I'd be "cheering" for Ottawa, but I really don't care all that much who wins, so long as it's not the motherfucking Ducks. God what an awful name. Why did they have to win a conference championship in 2003? If it wasn't for that, they'd have changed their name by now for sure.
As far as who I think will win, well obviously Ottawa is looking very good. But Anaheim really does have one hell of a strong team. Buffalo won't come back, they're done (good, I also don't much like Lindy Ruff and his incessant whining and temper tantrums). Detroit looks to be done as well, given how banged up their D is. I mean if you have a 44 year old playing 25 minutes a night, you've got fucking problems.
I'd say it's really a toss up between Ottawa and Anaheim, with Ray Emery being a pretty big wild card. |
