Tell me about it!!! I was somber for days...surprised myself! But they're doing awesome again this year.
Yes, and the Oilers aren't. So this may be another year where I'm rooting for the Sens in the playoffs.

Hope so

The Oilers used to be SO good!!!
Got to game 7 of the finals just 2 years ago.

But, yes, I was a fan back in the golden days, saw them win all five cups. Been with them for 26 years.

Ah, right...against Carolina...that too, was a heartbreaker!
Yeah.

Apologies to all the non-Canadians, but when two Canucks get talking about hockey we can take over a thread!

Okay, gotta get the kids ready for trick or treating so the rest of you can have the thread back now. lol.

Hey now, I take offense to that. I grew up watching, playing, and loving hockey. Y'all ain't the only ones with ice, ya know.

I'm from Boston, and I have been following the Bruins for as long as I can remember. I have only one sports jersey that is my own (not dh's that I steal) and that is my O'Reilly jersey. I still love hockey, but I don't follow it as much as I used to.

Red Wings are an original six team, and I always pull for 5 of the 6 originals when its a game that doesn't affect my own team(s) - (Edmonton - Boston - Ottawa). The sixth is the Canadiens, I never pull for them. Hate 'em! They broke Bruins' fans hearts for 40 years! Aaaargh!

Back in the 80s when the cold war was still on the Soviet team played the Canadiens and I rooted for the Russians!

oooh - you're tough.

I would cheer for an original 6 team any day (even the Blackhawks ).

I'm old school though - I miss the old division and conference names (Norris, Campbell, Prince of Wales etc). Sounds so much better than east and west
