    I mean, I love Crosby as much as the next Canadian, and I'd much rather Nashville take home the cup. Having said that, being a die hard fan and going to all the home playoff games of a team for a team's first cup win, I want as many fan bases as possible to experience that. Especially those in a non traditional hockey market.

    Give me cups for San Jose, Washington, Minnesota, you name it.

    This is going to be like if the grizzlies were playing the pacers in the NBA finals, wake me up when it's over.

    The Preds being compared to the Grizzlies or Pacers is just ridiculous.

    Well, you know what I mean though. It's a meh matchup, not that the preds are that boring themselves.

    Yeah I get what you mean. Going into the playoffs, I think that was probably the last matchup the NHL wanted in the final.

    Nashville has probably changed that narrative a bit, but yeah. I blame it on Ottawa being a mostly irrelevant franchise.

    I remember last year people were complaining about the sharks ratings in the finals.

    They were so bad because the Bay Area is basically golden state forever currently.

    I love watching Nashville play and it amuses me so many people call the Senators boring, so I am loving this

    well, sure, but I'd rather be 'boring' and win than 'exciting' and lose.

    I don't care how good a team is if they aren't fun to watch

    Last year sharks vs pens matchup was too good to have anything good follow it

    honestly I don't even consider the sharks a fun offensive team last year

    they basically went shutdown mode every series up until the scf

    The thing that made them fun was the personalities they had and the first Stanley cup finals

    so if the Penguins won every game 2-1 trapping you'd be upset?

    I find that hard to believe.

    It's only boring when it's not your team.

    I have lots of Rangers friends who hated and couldn't watch them during the torts years. It's possible.
