I think the Leafs deserve a Stanley Cup for a change...I don't even know why. Yeah, I'm rooting for the Flyers as any nearby Philly person would, but I secretly want the Leafs to win.

w00t! GO LEAFS GO! No doubt! I would really like to see the Leafs and the Habs in the Conference finals, but I don't like the Habs chances.

In the west I personally don't care who gets up there cause the Leafs are going to tear them a new one anyways!

LOL, you sound like Conan O' Brien when he went to Canada for a few shows. "GO LEAFS GO! YEAH, GO LEAFS GO!" Do they really do that up there?

Sadly, they do. It's a bit pathetic at times.

They even have Toronto Maple Leafs flags at Grocery stores.

Peanut · 04-04-2004, 06:59 PM

HAHA! You're damn right they do! I shave my head into a mohawk and dye it blue for the playoffs and walking down the road in Toronto will get a ton of honking horns and GO LEAFS GO chants.

That's the best thing I've heard tonight. You just made my night.

*Stone Ill* · 04-04-2004, 07:03 PM

Hey, Michelangelo, did you see in the sports section of the Toronto star a few weeks ago, that picture of that family with every thing painted Leafs colours? I mean, the guys face, the tree, the house, the garage, and the driveway!

He was even wearing hockey equipment with a Leafs jersey whilist shoveling the driveway!

Peanut · 04-04-2004, 07:04 PM

Speaking of which, does anyone else have playoff rituals? I own 3 Leaf jerseys (actually 5 but I don't want to wear my signed Clark and Domi ones) and I constantly make sure at least one of the 3 is clean for me to wear EVERYDAY until the playoffs are over.

Edit: Yeah I did see that! That was nuts! The furthest my family goes is everyone wearing some type of Leafs insignia on them at all times.

*Stone Ill* · 04-04-2004, 07:07 PM

Woah, that's crazy!

The only jerseys I own are a no-name 'Ducks one and a no-name 'Preds one.

My brothers have a Roy-Avalanche one and a Potvin-Leafs one.

I'll have to get some new jerseys.

Probably one for all of my favourite teams: Boston Bruins, Colorado Avalanche, Montreal Canadians, Toronto Maple Leafs

Peanut · 04-04-2004, 07:10 PM

Yeah I've got a couple. Only other team besides Leafs that I have are Wild and Stars. I can't even remember where I got the Stars from. As for Leafs I own Sundin, Mogilny, and another Domi. I also have 2 no names, 90's style and new TML style and a St. John's Maple Leafs jersey.

Salo is a choke artist!

If no one from the East wins I want Av's to take it. If they make it that far. They've got a good chance though....cause you know...Selanne and Kariya....they're uh....tearing it up this year......

malignant · 04-04-2004, 07:16 PM

Av's have to much Talent, thats their Problem....

but it wont matter come play offs, 7 game series favors them...

Peanut · 04-04-2004, 07:18 PM

I can't say I don't like the Avs. They made me a ton of cash last year! No one thought Minny would take em! I did!

Bet the same against Vancouver! I'd like the Avs more if they didn't have Forsberg. I just can't stand that guy.

*cqb101* · 04-04-2004, 07:26 PM

Bruins all the way. They're gonna follow in the foot steps of the Pats.

Mondo J. Gecko · 04-04-2004, 07:29 PM

San Jose or Vacouver vs. Toronto or Tampa Bay in the Finals... Thats my guess...

Peanut · 04-04-2004, 07:30 PM

Am I the only one that thinks Tampa won't be able to make it far in the playoffs? I just have a feeling they're going to get mega roughed up.

*Taloniss* · 04-04-2004, 07:44 PM

Sometimes I think I'm the only Canadian who doesn't like hockey

Anyway, go Leafs, but only because I'm from Toronto
