You never want a Canadian team to win?
I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
Flyers win! Yay!
I guess they're gonna have to win consistently to shut everybody up about that god awful mascot.

I dono that’s necessarily true tbh, look at the biggest free agent signing this year, Tavares went to the leafs. Plus making US dollars up here versus a team in say Cali or NY with almost the same taxes would probably be fairly appealing. I guess some states like Florida and Nevada would have a nice edge tax wise for sure though, and you’d be out of the spotlight more so there too if that suits your personality.
Most teams that win the last decade seem to do it on the backs of guys they drafted in the lotto. Crosby & Malkin, Toews and Kane, Ovie & Backstrom... all drafts not FA signings.
I think the problem is bad ownership with a good chunk of the Canadian teams The Nucks, Oilers and Sens in particular have horrible owners who interfere far too much.

Oh I missed your point, thought you were talking the last time since the Leafs made a real run
Ya I don’t remember the last time a Canadian team won, I was 5 then. I vaguely remember the Jays winning the World Series. Other than Olympic hockey gold we haven’t had much to bring home in a while...

That’s a good question, hadn’t really thought of it. Leafs definitely get more, it’s a much bigger city and a good chunk of Habs fans would be frenchies who wouldn’t tune into the big national broadcasts so maybe that’s why they don’t get nearly the same airtime.

It just occurred to me that I'm been drinking and smoking longer than GF's been alive.

He was 5 in '93. I was graduating high school and starting college. Not quite old enough to drink legally, but when did that ever stop anybody?
