    1. Canada (yes, Winnipeg counts)
    2. Original 6
    3. Pre-1980 and haven't moved since then
    4. North of 40N Lat
    5. Not FL or CA

    So currently:

    1. EDM
    1. MON
    1. OTT
    1. TOR
    5. BOS
    5. NYR
    7. PIT
    7. STL
    7. WAS
    10. MIN
    11. NSH
    12. ANA
    12. SJ
    Obviously I'd like the Wild make it to the finals, but assuming their hill is too great to climb, personally I'd love to see an Edmonton/Toronto final. Some really good, young players, playing a fast-paced form of hockey in front of a couple of pretty hockey mad crowds. I think it'd be a lot more entertaining than say Pittsburgh/San Jose again.
    That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

          I just want to see teams win who A) play a fun style of hockey, not some riff on a Jacques Lemaire inspired game, and B) don't have overly obnoxious jerks for fans.

            Well, that lets out the east coast any anybody who has a Cup in the last 10 years.

            Who plays the most fun hockey of the teams remaining? I think I've seen 240 total minutes of non-playoff NHL hockey since 1994.

                We're hockey fans. It's what we do.

                  The Oilers are the most entertaining team in the West. The Capitals or Penguins in the East. The Penguins/Jackets series was a 1980's type series.

                    That's why if the Wild don't make it I'm rooting for the Penguins to repeat or the Capitals to breath through. They at least play hockey the way it's supposed to be played.

                      The Preds/Hawks series looked like the dead puck era. It was painful too watch for many reasons.

                        On the same topic, the Minnesota-St. Louis series has been pretty unwatchable.

                          St. Louis has been unwatchable for a few years. Pretty good teams over the years, but they play the most boring style. A Pred/Blues series is going to be completely unwatchable.

                          The NHL is much better off with Hitchcock retiring....and then I google him and find out the Stars hired this man....unreal.

                            The one with R A N G E R S diagonally is beautiful. As with almost everything, simpler is better. This is lovely. This is dogsh-t.

                            We get a respite for one year.

                            Afterwards I'm sure they'll be sh-t again. Sports merc is a license to take stupid people's money, and third jerseys are the biggest scam around.
