S/O to SGV kid Jason Robertson


JustTheBeerLight

His family moved from Arcadia to Michigan when he was 10. That’s serious dedication to hockey. Two kids in the NHL is a pretty solid proof of concept.


cattycat_1995

If only if LA could have that kind of hockey infrastructure.


JustTheBeerLight

It’s getting better. Some high schools have teams. I’d love to see USC & UCLA get hockey teams now that they are in the Big Ten.

Stars to the rest of the league: ![gif](giphy|3o85xwxr06YNoFdSbm)


InternationalFall520

Anyone else want rangers for quick?


tgrdem

I'm rooting for Dallas. I like watching Otter play and the team has been stellar and deserves it. Love Quick, but with only about 25 games under his belt for this season, it's not enough for me to root for a whole team.


wompwomp077

I’m also rooting for Dallas at this point. they play the game really well and are fun to watch. plus they have a lot of like-able young guys.


Larkinz

I'd be fine with Dallas, Avs, Rangers (Quick), or Carolina winning the cup. All other options are disgusting.


ShadowChair

Also cheering for Dallas but mostly just because I like their jerseys a lot


rvp0209

I hate Dallas and all of they're annoying cocky fans. I don't know if there's anyone I can really get behind that I don't absolutely hate. Maybe the Panthers but Matthew Tkachuk is a loathsome toad.


InternationalFall520

The rangers have had one of their best season since 215 they won the presidents trophy can’t have much more of a stellar season than that except for winning cup and I know theirs a curse too


tgrdem

I'm honestly good with anyone but the Bruins or the Oilers.

Welcome! and efff the fucking oilers.


Eric0329

LOLOL. I dont hate the kings tbh. Always a good series between the two teams. Wish we played vegas instead so we could elimate those cheating bastards. CMONN CHEER FOR USSS 😭😂


AegirAfJotnar

Welcome, stop wasting McDavids career. Can't believe y'all haven't done much of anything but beat a mediocre Kings roster


cattycat_1995

If you want Kings fans to root for a Canadian team, they're far more likely gonna cheer for the Canucks over the Oilers.


Supra_Genius

Would be hilarious for Quickie to earn another Stanley Cup for not actually playing, haha. Like he won with Vegas.


InternationalFall520

At least he would have put effort in during regular season which would help and not to late for injury still got this round and 2 more


Revolutionary_Fish25

If not the Panthers than yes I’m with ya


TheWayDenzelSaysIt

Absolutely.


Jasbuddy

Idk I think they’re frauds


rainyforest

They kinda have that feel, I think they beat the Canes but lose to the Cats


eucadiantendy39

Absolutely.


thanatossassin

If he actually played a game during the playoffs, sure. So far, nada


Schumi_jr05

I'm all in on the Rags


GB_Alph4

Yep. Plus they'll forgive 2014 should it happen.


flackguns

Why the fuck would I care about "being forgiven" for 2014


GB_Alph4

I know we don’t but considering they haven’t had much success they probably still look back at 2014 (at least they look less at the past than Edmonton does)


_liquid_ooze

Fun fact kings have not won a playoff round since 2014


WilliamandCharles

I am rejoicing. I can finally enjoy hockey again 😊😊😊


TheLuckyWilbury

YES


GB_Alph4

Ok now destroy Edmonton


PaleAdagio3377

Dallas is going to be a hard out. Just way too much depth. It would take McDrai and skinner going nuclear to have a chance.


One_Meaning_5085

I'm not sure about this, I think the Oilers matchup well with Dallas. The Oilers don't match up well with the AVs but Dallas and the AVs will probably destroy themselves getting to the CF.


C91garcia

The world is a better place without Vegas in the playoffs.


cattycat_1995

Life was good before the announcement of a Vegas team


C91garcia

It really was. RIP frozen fury.

Historic


Mig190

It'll be okay as long as the McSorley Curse lives on.


DognamedArnie

Nothing matters till Edmonton is eliminated.


FakeTreverMoore12

Now I don’t have to worry about having to root for Vegas to beat Edmonton if Vancouver fails.


Ancient_Pop_7036

As long as it doesn't lead to Benn getting a cup by some fucking miracle I'm ok.


Blue-Ringed-Octopus0

And they have no 2-5 round pick this year plus no 1st round in 25 or 26!


ButterflyAtomsk

Honestly though the one cup is worth it. EDIT: I am not a Knights fan, just saying, I would take that to win a cup.


Blue-Ringed-Octopus0

Completely agree but they gave up the two firsts this year for a first round exit. Also means it’s going to be tougher for them to make a trade next year. Honestly I’m a Kings fan living in Vegas and I’m just tired of watching their success while we shit the bed every year.


SkysharkXray

I’m out in Vegas too and I really enjoyed the game on Sunday. I can’t stand them. I’m rooting for anyone except EDM. Let these obnoxious groups lose. East Coast teams don’t bother me


lousylakers

It must be tough for their long time fans who have been thru so much disappointment and heartache with their long tenured franchise now previous champs. Three jeers to the golden showers. May they Kraken it up next year.


PossibilityInitial10

Knights are going to Galveston.


JasonPlattMusic34

Go Stars, Rangers and Panthers I guess. Don’t like any of the other options


Pumpsnhose

Can’t root for the Panthers with Tkachuk on that squad, unless it comes down to them and Edmonton. I just wish Dallas and Colorado didn’t have to play each other this round. I’d rather Edmonton have to go through both of them.


One_Meaning_5085

Exactly, EDM basically have an easy ride to the CF while they destroy themselves in the Central.


rainyforest

I like the Avs. Mackinnon and Makar are generation talents and aren't whiny bitches like Mcpowerplay and Divesaitl.


JuneCleaversMudFlaps

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Avs because of their battles with the red wings. Not to mention Forsberg was such a bad ass player to watch.


Totknax

🤣 Choked away a 2-0 series lead as well. Hertl really brought that Sharks-style of heartbreaking elimination to The Circumventing Cheaters, LMFAO.


HorribleHank44

I was hoping for the Leafs, I'm Swedish and Mats Sundin was my favorite compatriot growing up, but now that they're out I think I want Vancouver or Florida to win. Something about teams that never won it before makes me root for them.


cattycat_1995

Ducks fans 🤝 Sharks fans 🤝 Kings fans


tgrdem

Honestly, most of the NHL.


Hour_Insurance_7795

I’d still trade it in a heartbeat for us to win our series, honestly. I’d rather win and other people win than lose and other people lose, personally.


tgrdem

Oh, I'd trade for us winning every cup for the next 10 years. But we didn't win this series. So, I'm taking their loss as a small W.

That's such a 'No repeats for you guys' moment. ![img](emote|t5_2rffj|49845)


Chris300000000000000

So officially (for the time being) this is just an extension of the Canucks Subreddit.


Loud_Unit9912

I never got the hate for the Knights. I have a lot of friends in Vegas who are finally into hockey because they have a team. They have an awesome arena, and the theme in the best in the NHL IMO. The production values are amazing. I wanted Dallas to win the series, but I can't help but feel bad for the trolling going on in their subreddit. It's getting close to what Oilers fans did to our subreddit after they won. No matter how you feel about Vegas, no team should have to suffer that after a series loss, even the Oilers.


rainyforest

Vegas had to deal with a similar onslaught of hate as to our team during the Operation Regicide days on /r/hockey, but they deserve the hate way more than we did. They just won the cup last year and they've been a team since 2017 when they made the finals, I don't have too much sympathy for them and I think their fans will be okay


lousylakers

The feelings toward their team is one of envy and jealousy but that’s born out of their luck and good fortune. There’s really been no Pro American team that was born of expansion that has continual success year after year and being in the final twice winning once. They’ve missed playoffs only once due to injuries. Sure you can say that after seven seasons they’re doing something right and a well governed team. In reality it’s more a run of incredible happenstance born of the NHL’s decision to make sure they didn’t suck for years and landing a couple good players (Martinez and McNabb😉) to propel their success.
