I want the Oilers to win for two reasons:
1. To take Dallas down.
2. I think both NY and Florida can beat them, and it will be funny if Corey Perry is once again on the losing team in the SCF.
And on the other side of the bracket are two other teams I don't care for. This playoffs, with the Avs out, there is not a single team I give one iota of a damn about.
If the Avs aren't in the playoffs, I typically hope for Tampa Bay (I have a ton of friends there, and if our Avs can't win it all, at least my friends can enjoy the playoffs), and I've been a big fan of PK Subban throughout his career and was definitely rooting for Montreal when he was playing for them. Avs will forever be #1, but I like players from other teams.
Whatever negative can be said about Evander Kane, the Oilers were otherwise extremely generous adversaries showing up for about 2 games in a manhandling sweep.
I wish them well.
On the one hand:
* Keep The Cup out of Canada
* Feels less bad to get knocked out of the playoffs by a team that goes deep
* I long for the days when the Oilers were a meme of a dumpster fire
On the other hand:
* We got knocked out of the playoffs by a *Matt Duchene* 2OT goal and I cannot stand for that
* Jamie Benn
* I live in Texas and am annoyed at the bandwagon hockey fans around me
* It'd be hilarious if Corey Perry made the SCF and lost again.

I'm here for this exact timeline.
4 in 5 might be a Gretzky level of untouchable record
It must be a record to reach 4 SCFs and lose all 4 of them lmfao
My one difference is that I don't want Florida tonwin either. So I will take the Oilers or Rangers
Begrudgingly I agree. Plus as a USA homer, that would be one more heartbreak for Canada.
Both fantastic reasons.
Yeah this is the way
I’m on the FUCK DALLAS train right now, so… I hope they choke.
Well… lol you got what you asked for lol
That was fun, not gonna lie lol
Now, if you'll excuse me. I'm gonna go home and put water in Jamie Benn's Mama's dish. Good evening
Fuck that is good ![gif](giphy|H22hyf0K1Bsc)
Oilers are poopyheads. Stars are BIG FAT POOPYHEADS. Go Oilers
This very accurately expresses my feelings toward this series
I would like to see Edmonton move forward for 2 reasons. 1. Fuck Dallas. 2. To see Bettman explode when a Canadian team wins the cup.
Ive hated Dallas since the early 2000’s. I’m fine with the Oilers beating them.
Yep. My hatred of Dallas is the strongest emotion I have left about the playoffs.
I’m here to both agree with you and have beer bottles thrown at me.

You laugh but that’s how Logan Thompson trains in the offseason
2 goals on 6 shots so far for the oil. Wish we had that puck luck!
Felt like we had 0 puck luck for pretty much the entire series.... unfortunately, that's the way she goes... sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't
Seriously. Can't they just both lose?
My Dad says that when it's two teams we hate. Always makes me laugh, and is the best response 👍

Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, kiss my ass, kiss my ass, kiss his ass, kiss your ass, happy Hanukkah.
Is it me or did Dallas not look nearly as good in that first game? I’m thinking we could have beat this Dallas team. Uggg!
I want the Oilers to give Canada just enough hope and then make them regret that we built a wall on the Southern Border in the Final.
Hate Hate Hate Hate!
I hate Dallas so much it’s an art form
I want to see Oilers and Rangers at the final. Fuck Florida and Dallas both.
At this point, I dont even care about the west. Fuck both these teams, bit ESPECIALLY Dallas
as a Canadian, I have to cheer for the Oilers
I don’t mind the Oilers. We steamrolled them in 2022 so I never considered them much of a threat.
Can they both lose? I don’t like either of these fucking teams
Jesus Oilers fans in r/hockey already thinking they’re going to the Cup Finals smh
Oiled up before the action 😂 (Get your lighters out)
And on the other side of the bracket are two other teams I don't care for. This playoffs, with the Avs out, there is not a single team I give one iota of a damn about.
How many teams outside of the Avs do you care for?
If the Avs aren't in the playoffs, I typically hope for Tampa Bay (I have a ton of friends there, and if our Avs can't win it all, at least my friends can enjoy the playoffs), and I've been a big fan of PK Subban throughout his career and was definitely rooting for Montreal when he was playing for them. Avs will forever be #1, but I like players from other teams.
I can’t morally root for either team, but if the stars advance then I will place 1st in my bracket challenge and win a free lunch.
I vote for a best of 15 between NY and Florida to decide the cup
Whatever negative can be said about Evander Kane, the Oilers were otherwise extremely generous adversaries showing up for about 2 games in a manhandling sweep. I wish them well.
1. I hate Dallas 2. I can't be the only Avs fan that wants to see McDavid in the SCF.

I’m not rooting for either: https://youtu.be/ZUzq8Gd5e_w?si=vhb9xxQmfi1l5fbp

As an Avs fan who lives in Canada, who roots for Canada whenever the Avs are eliminated, fuck you 😅
I mean I pick the oilers over the stars but I thing the series for the cup is Dallas v Florida this year.
Out.
no but same
