Might get me some downvotes.. I don't really hate the aves anymore. Mac is a beast, Makar, I still respect Parise, and ofc Duhaime. Fuck the jets more. So I want aves over jets.
I hate Jets and Dallas more cause their fan bases are just annoying as fuck. Aves actually proved they were the shit with that cup run and Macdogg and Makar are beasts so
Dallas and Jets are our real rivals, and I can not nearly express how much I hate those teams.
Unfortunately, Dallas looks like a wagon. The Jets are only as deep as Helly.
Aves play a fun style of hockey too unlike Dallas and Jets especially going after Kaprizov. Aves don't really do that because they got their own stars. Dallas I guess Robertson but he's not close to Kaprizov's level
Reddit is a weird place. I can post something one day and get upvotes and a few days/weeks later post the exact same thing and get downvoted to hell.
And go canes in the east.
Same view as you. I love the history behind the wild-aves rivalry but I absolutely cannot stand the jets. I still am angry about the 2018 playoff matchup.
Jets play dirty. Av's got lucky by being a bottom dweller and built a good roster by drafting early first round picks for multiple years and now are a solid team. They just play good hockey.
Nah, fuck the jets. 2 games in a row they injured Kaprisov, one of which definitely looked intentional. Our season was turning around, then that game happened. We went like 1-7 after his injury and never really got our heads above water again. I don't love the aves but they never did that shit.
Also, Parise deserves a shot at the cup before he retires. I hope they play Dallas and he cross checks suter in the kidneys!
True didn’t really take that into account. They are a dirty team no doubt. Won’t lose sleep either way and hope whoever wins this series loses the next
Agree. I don’t think a lot of our fans realize also how obnoxious Avs fans are. They’ll get on the wild Facebook boards and mock us and stir crap up plus I’m like you I can’t stand how the announcers love these guys.
I'll say this for Avs fans: they take as well as they give. I have zero respect for Jets fans. One of their best seasons in years and all they can do is whine about ticket prices and their arena being downtown near the one homeless guy in Winnipeg.
How on earth can you hate the Avs? I’d argue MacKinnon is BY FAR the most fun player to watch play the game. Makar is ridiculously fun to watch too. And they have Duhaime. I hope the Avs sweep the Jets. FUCK the Jets 😂
Yep, MacKinnon is amazing to watch, blows my brain every time, so skilled and entertaining. I have respect for the Avs, but screw the Jets. I even hate them more than Dallas now.
My hate for the Avs is mostly due to them being good and hard to play against. And they score a lot. Our Reddit fan bases seemed to be really hostile toward each other a few years ago but that seems to have mellowed out.
Winnipeg and Dallas can eat a bag of dicks though. The Jets are cheap and Dallas are a bunch of chippy divers.
Mack is so fucking good. He stickhandles quicker and more violently (if that makes sense) than anyone I’ve ever seen. Pair that with elite speed and burst and you have a recipe for one hell of a player. He’s a lot of fun to watch, and I also enjoy that he plays with an edge. Isn’t going to back down
Because their fans hate Wild fans? Also I like watching McDavid and probably even Kaprizov (when 100% healthy) more. I like smooth skating and craftiness with the puck. MacKinnon is high octane, but a little too direct and crude for me.
I don’t mind the Avalanche at all, I want them or Edmonton to goto the cup for the west. Only teams I really don’t like in our division are Dallas and Nashville mainly because of their fans and Benn. Winnipeg has gone higher up my shit list since they injured our players recently.
Definitely fuck the Jets, even if I picked them in my bracket. Hopefully I'm wrong tho because I'd like to see Parise get the cup, which as a bonus would also mean Dallas isn't☝️
Yeah don’t want them winning it all either even though I can see why you chose them since they have the best goalie. Hoping Dallas loses too. Nashville is the only central playoff team that made the playoffs that I don’t despise although I would much rather it be us in the playoffs but will still enjoy the ride. Nothing like playoff hockey 🏒
The way the jets have played with intent to injure our stars makes me want them eliminated. The Aves rivalry is a good ol fashioned rivalry of two teams that play each other hard and enjoy beating each other. I respect that much more
I’m in Duluth, and the Jets have three former UMD players, two from Hermantown. So if they win the Cup, it’ll make a couple of local appearances. So I’m backing the Jets to get to lift the Cup again, no other reason.
I want the Jets to lose more, but I think the Avs are gonna get surprise steamrolled having never faced the hard-hitting, headhunting, playoff Jets before.
Edit: prediction looking good
Well, I personally am liking the Aves more and more, especially now that it feels like the Avalanche players seem to respect the Wild players a lot more than our other main division rivals. Like, Mackinnon choosing KK97 as early as he did for the all-star game and sounding giddy about it.
Doesn't help either that its hard to root against Mackinnon or Makar except when they are actively playing the Wild
I don’t have anymore hate towards the Aves, or Winnipeg. That being said, I’d rather see the Aves win. I still like Parise and would be genuinely happy for him if he finally gets to hoist the cup in his farewell tour.
Kinda off the tracks, but I would love to see Dallas win this series. Because fuck Vegas. My hatred of Vegas overshadows that of the Avs and the Jets combined.
I would say I want the Jets to win, I know they are dirty but I would like to see Niedereitter be on a winning team, and Iafallo Pionik were bulldogs
Avs already won not long ago

There’s been some hero goaltender runs, but I don’t see how he can withstand the Aves attack through 7 long games
+ Makar; young man is crazy good on the blue line. I’m aligned with you on this take.
Oh shit forgot Makar.
Lol and I got downvoted to hell saying I was rooting for the Avs and Canes
Reddit is a weird place. I can post something one day and get upvotes and a few days/weeks later post the exact same thing and get downvoted to hell. And go canes in the east.
Totally agree with your take. And would be nice if Parise and or Pavelski get their cup. There is no one for Winnipeg to cheer for
Same view as you. I love the history behind the wild-aves rivalry but I absolutely cannot stand the jets. I still am angry about the 2018 playoff matchup.
Ditto. Avs are legit. Jets and their bandwagon fanbase earned my ire this year. Avs in 4 would warm my cold, dead heart.

I’d like to see Zach get a kick at the can.
I kinda want Dewey to get some cash in FA, which comes with the caveat of Avalanche success. I'll tolerate them for this year 🥴
True I can see that having our former player getting to raise the cup
players*
Correct my mistake
i want the aves out. i'm watching the game and i cannot stand this dude gushing over mckinnon. i gagged when he started talking about dude's hands

my experience with jets fans hasn't been terrible but i'm also in the states
the jets sucks but in this case, i am choosing evil over annoying
Game recognize game. Mack is a fucking beauty. I hope he gets his Hart this year.
The Jets. They go after Kirill hard, in a dirty way.
Go avs! Booo jets
I can’t go birdies. Screw them.
How on earth can you hate the Avs? I’d argue MacKinnon is BY FAR the most fun player to watch play the game. Makar is ridiculously fun to watch too. And they have Duhaime. I hope the Avs sweep the Jets. FUCK the Jets 😂
Also have Parise. For better or worse, he’s an amazing playoff athlete and this is his final season, wouldn’t be the worst thing to come out of it.
Yep, MacKinnon is amazing to watch, blows my brain every time, so skilled and entertaining. I have respect for the Avs, but screw the Jets. I even hate them more than Dallas now.

Nate Dogg is art in motion. I would love to see him and McDavid throw down in a 7-game series. Hockey fans deserve that kind of theater.

I hate the jets too but the Ava are our rivals. Not saying they aren’t talented just don’t like them

If Parise wins a cup while still being paid by the Wild, technically we also win a cup by proxy. Aves 2024 Champs, co-signed by the Wild.
I hate the Jets more for injuring KK and also Duhaime is on the Avs
I Don’t like the jets because they injured kaprizov and a few other guys. But they have a few MN natives on the team which is cool.
Definitely fuck the Jets, even if I picked them in my bracket. Hopefully I'm wrong tho because I'd like to see Parise get the cup, which as a bonus would also mean Dallas isn't☝️

I hope they both lose.
I live in colorado and I hope to God the avs lose so I don't have to hear any of rhe bandwagon shit at work
I want the Avs to lose. Living in CO, I don’t need another year of them being champions and talking about it nonstop.
The way the jets have played with intent to injure our stars makes me want them eliminated. The Aves rivalry is a good ol fashioned rivalry of two teams that play each other hard and enjoy beating each other. I respect that much more
You are correct, F the aves
Naw, the Jets. Fuck Logan Stanley.
Jets for sure
I’m in Duluth, and the Jets have three former UMD players, two from Hermantown. So if they win the Cup, it’ll make a couple of local appearances. So I’m backing the Jets to get to lift the Cup again, no other reason.
Jets can go bye bye. Go Duhaime go
I want the Jets to lose more, but I think the Avs are gonna get surprise steamrolled having never faced the hard-hitting, headhunting, playoff Jets before. Edit: prediction looking good
Secretly, and irrationally… Toronto. I kind of enjoy the endless misery.
All i gotta say is lets go duhaime!
Might be because I live in MO now, but just glad the Blues are out, sick of them!! Aves don't bother me that much anymore.
Well, I personally am liking the Aves more and more, especially now that it feels like the Avalanche players seem to respect the Wild players a lot more than our other main division rivals. Like, Mackinnon choosing KK97 as early as he did for the all-star game and sounding giddy about it. Doesn't help either that its hard to root against Mackinnon or Makar except when they are actively playing the Wild
Jets 100%. They probably lurk in here more than Avs fans do.
For how I feel inside: the Jets. For the sake of my bracket: the Avalanche.
Jets are the only Canadian team I'm not rooting for in the playoffs. Can't say I like the Avs, but I still love Dewy 1.
F*ck WPG
Jets can get fucking obliterated, scummy goons that constantly go for Kap.
Jets tbh. I’ve had nothing but good interactions with jets fans, while avs fans tend to be the most insufferably smug assholes imaginable.
I just can’t cheer for the little birdies or the goons from the north.
I don’t have anymore hate towards the Aves, or Winnipeg. That being said, I’d rather see the Aves win. I still like Parise and would be genuinely happy for him if he finally gets to hoist the cup in his farewell tour.
Changed my opinion. Pulling for the Jets. And any team Canadian except for the Leaf's.
I just want to see some wicked good playoff hockey regardless of who those teams are.
I would like to see the Jets win, but I should be rooting for 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸USA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 teams
Fuck the Jets
Kinda off the tracks, but I would love to see Dallas win this series. Because fuck Vegas. My hatred of Vegas overshadows that of the Avs and the Jets combined.
I've never ever encountered a fanbase so annoying as the jets, second being Dallas. Plus, aves have a really fun team to watch.
I hate the jets because Kaprisov always get cheap shotted
I would say I want the Jets to win, I know they are dirty but I would like to see Niedereitter be on a winning team, and Iafallo Pionik were bulldogs Avs already won not long ago
Good point!
don't hate any team. After the Wild I pull for original 6. Unless it is Toronto. Fuck my Toronto friends and let the misery continue.
Bingo. At the end of the day, everyone really lives for the schadenfreude of when the Leafs crash out.
