Much rather see Carolina win, although i think their luck will run out against the Penns.
Not sure why anyone would root for the Pens? They are the division rivals (obviously not as bad as rags or philly, but still), secondly, no one on here likes Cindy. Cindy winning is almost like Bettman winning.

I'll root for the Canes and I HATE THEM!
But...Pitt stole Mario from the Devs and I can and will never forgive them. That in #66's era we won more cups than Pitt is no consolation. Stealing Lemieux took fans and a perception away from NJ. I believe NJ would be more of a hockey hotbed if Lemieux played here.
Pitt gets their ass kissed about being a great hockey town, but they needed to steal a legend to save the team ONCE and then needed to have the NHL rig the lottery (why wasn't the drawing live on TV?)to get Crosby to save them again. I know we're not the best fan base in the NHL but they DO NOT deserve the hype they get for being a hockey town. It seems they only come out when they have a "STAR"
I will be very down if/when Pitt ties us in cups won.
So it's the canes for me, because at least the Canes beat us on the ice.
(The downside is that people could infer we were better then we were because we lost to the finalists. We're not that good we need help! IMO)

Root for Carolina to play four straight seven-games series ... only to lose the last one to Detroit or Chicago.

Carolina...if they win the cup then we can say we only lost to the best by fluke.

Why would you call Marty a fish?
I'm hoping for a Pens/Wings rematch. I think that would be the most interesting Stanley Cup situation...

Chicago-Detroit could shape up to be quite a series.
The NHL must be ecstatic right now... Caps-Pens, and now the 2 Winter Classic teams in the Conference finals. Its win-win in the finals for the league if Carolina goes down.
But remember... when the Devils and Canes play, the winner goes to the finals...

I hope all the Canes players pull their groins getting on the plane to Pittsburgh and lose 4 straight 10-0.
I'll get no satisfaction if the Canes win the Cup, it doesn't make our loss to them better. Yea, I'm a crappy fan.

Actually, I watched the drawing live on the internet. Couldn't believe Anaheim almost pulled him out of a hat.

No, not destroyed. When they're about to clinch (with a 3-2 series lead and a 4-3 lead in game 6), detroit ties it with .00000000000000000000001 seconds left on the clock. Then, in game 7, the Canes have a 19.5 to -1 lead with a minute twenty to go, and the wings score 20 goals in 80 seconds, Eric Staal then commits suicide, and Jonni Pitkanen is suspended for throwing punches during the handshakes. The whole team is then changed BACK into the Hartford Whalers, where they endure 29 straight years of seasons with less than 7 wins.i hope carolina makes it.

All it means is we came within 0:00.2 + 1:20 from BEING the Eastern Conference Champs.I hate Carolina! But hey, as Devils fans, we have to hope they at least win the East so we can say that we bowed out to the Eastern Conference Champs...no?
If that's true, doesn't that mean Carolina's not that good and they need help too? I'm sure a lot of people here could get on board with that, but think about it for a minute or two before answering.So it's the canes for me, because at least the Canes beat us on the ice.
(The downside is that people could infer we were better then we were because we lost to the finalists. We're not that good we need help! IMO)
of the Devils' mascot, NJ Devil, and 
of all mascots far and wide.IT IS VERY HARD TO WIN ONE STANLEY CUP, FORGET ABOUT THREE... and maybe it's high time some of you actually APPRECIATED THAT instead of treating it like it's some flipping birthright because for some random reason you rooted for the damn Devils!!!!!

+1Let's Go HAWKS!!!
But to be honest... I hate the Pens more than the Canes.
Sure I'm bitter that Carolina has our number especially in the playoffs. And I could say I wouldn't mind so much if the Staal family's tractor had its tires slashed...
But damn that team is determined and will never give up. I give mad props for that.
My sentiments, exactly.
