So, PPPers, who should we root for in the West? San Jose because of their handsome teal jerseys and warm weather? Columbus on their first trip to the postseason (yes)? Anaheim because we all love Pronger and Bobby Ryan?
If anybody selects Vancouver or Detroit (besides SkinnyFish), I'm going to let Moose start blogging full time about how great the Oilers are.

Basically if you don’t vote for Columbus I hate you, and I’m going to make sure you follow Columbus anyway.

I think Howson has done a really great job with that club after Doug MacLean did some awfully stupid things. I also have a minor soft spot for Columbus after reading Future Greats and Heartbreaks.

The problem with Columbus is, can you imagine the sick feeling in your gut as long-suffering Leaf fans if they won?? I think I’ll be less sad if Detroit wins, just because I’m used to it by now.
That being said, the teams I hate the least are Columbus and St Louis

the best reason to pick Columbus is the fact that they will knock out either Calgary (whom I’m wholly indifferent) or Vancouver (aka Wellwood and his Swedish Chefs, a team I have no desire to ever see win, and not because I dislike the town, just the team). And then when Nash comes in 2010, he’ll have valuable playoff series winning experience!

It was the TSN crew but now I can’t remember whether it was during the game or after. But they spoke about how it was not only a ridiculous situation but it was affecting the integrity of the games that they played.

Cuz IMO they are due for some serious playoff success, that and you can’t hate Joe Thornton.
Who the hell voted for Calgary and VanCity? A vote for either is a vote for pompous Western Canadian assholes. If the Leafs can’t win the Cup no other Canadian team shall.

I’m rooting for Columbus too, Mason and Nash, gotta love those guys but I heart Thornton and he deserves some success and a win. But San Jose’s due, and I like their fans so if I had to bandwagon for a western team, they are it with the Blue Jackets a close second choice.

I would go with Columbus, but I fear a decent run might help sway Nash to stay. And that would be bad.

You’re going to feel even more disgusting when Bobby Lou rips shit up, and the Canucks storm through to the Final.
Then, after the Canucks win, Bobby Lou will be the first goalie to accept the Stanley Cup from Commish Bettman.
And we all know who he’s going to hand it off to first……………

He deserves it, man. After going through the Tampa system, and then being a healthy scratch in Vancouver…what a warrior.
And O’Brien will then pass it on to #42…….

Isn't Bobby Lou
A woman’s name from the ’50’s era? Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I didn't vote for Vancouver
Because I honestly believe they have no chance at all. They’re a very streaky team with streaky players. No Sedins on the board? lose Luongo has a nap? lose I voted Calgary, Bertuzzi or no I like Kiprusoff, as should you all
SO SAY WE ALL!

THE ANSWER IS ST. LOUIS
St. Louis Game Time is the closest thing we have in America to PPP. Don’t think about the team, think about the Web site you’d hang out at during the games! We bring the funny, we bring the breakdowns, we bring the creative curse words. We’d break the commenting machine with one game.
I know the Leafs and Blues didn’t get along during the Chuck Norris Division days, but let’s bygones be bygones. Let’s unite the clans.
Root for the Blues.

It’s more or less Toronto Maple Leafs, the outcasts. :)

Hmmm
He does make a good point. Because of the exchange rate I think that PPP does become SLGT once you cross the 49th parallel.

i’m temporarily lifting my ’can’t cheer for canadian teams’ rule for mats. this is only possible because i don’t personally know any canucks fans. also, i feel a little sorry for them… they’ve never won anything. and they get a lot of rain. and they have a horrible inferiority complex about Toronto. and they’ve never won anything.
i could also get behind the Blues – any resentment from the Norris days is long gone.
and Columbus? seriously? why would i cheer for another expansion team to win the cup. that would be a victory for Bettman – F that.

With 2 points last night the Columbus Blue Jackets locked up the sixth playoff spot in the West
Not sure how this happened? Chicken counting?
If the Blues win today we get 6th.
