    Living in a Canadian border city, I have always been torn between Chadian and American teams. With that being said I’m a Red Wings fan but I have a lot of respect for the Toronto Maple Leafs, regardless if they are rival teams.

    I grew up in Windsor! My dad is a huge Red Wings fan but couldn’t get me on board, try as he might. Lol! Blackhawks fan since I was 15! Jets are my #2 favourite team!

    Growing up, I was taught my ABCs stood for "Anybody but Chicago". Your dad sounds awesome.

    Hahaha! You are right on one thing! My dad is awesome!

    Big contest tonight between Penguins and Blue Jackets. Really good game through 2 periods so far.

    Nice gesture by the NHL to pay tribute to the Humboldt Broncos who lost 15 members in a tragic accident.Jets and Blackhawks wore Broncos on their nameplate

    Might jump on the Jets bandwagon after the butt-whooping they’ve given my Wild this series. Perhaps my team will be competitive for an entire period Sunday night.

    Wings, Caps, and Oilers fan most of the time. This year I'm rooting for WPG.

    I’m Canadian and from Ontario so you know I gotta always stand behind my leafs

    I’m Canadian too from Ontario but I am not a fan of the Leafs. My favourite Canadian team is the Winnipeg Jets. But still a Chicago Blackhawks fan first!

    Those Jets are looking pretty solid!!

    I really need to take my kids to Hurricanes game this year.

    It is a really cool sport.

    I love that it has a mix of competing demands...like, a really high skill component, cardio, strength, toughness...and for apparently no reason everybody accepts that it is more or less OK to just throw down in the middle of the game and start fighting.

    :D

    Do it. You'll love it. It's got a great vibe. And from what I hear, Canes tix are pretty cheap. !!

    I'm sure we will...I've been to some games here it's just been a long time. Great vibe and very family friendly.

    I'm thinking do this and follow it up with a trip to the ice rink and try out ice skating.

    They actually love roller skating at a nearby place, so it could be a cool motivator to a new weekend activity option.

    I have never actually tried ice skating myself and would like to try it out. I can roller skate on quads and do *minimal* like dancing type stuff but I see people there who are like dancing so great...it's just impressive.

    The idea that these guys can have such mastery over it to play a sport hard as possible while doing it and go anywhere they want is amazing to me.

    I love everything about what you just said. Especially getting out to a rink and throwing on some skates. I'm from Toronto, and hockey is literally a way of life as a kid. Skates on at 2 year's of age kind of thing. I hope you really do give it a try. I really do!

    Come on Vegas. One more win and the second worst fanbase in the NHL will have another season off!
