Mark Paul: Florida Panthers: Potential Girlfriend Team Part 1 (Western Conference) Every hockey fan should have a girlfriend team. If you're unfamiliar with the concept, you've got your main team (the wife), and the girlfriend team(s). Your main team never changes. No matter what happens, you'll always be a fan. However, there comes a time in every (hockey) relationship where one must wander.

No. One team that's it. When they are outed from playoffs (or dont make it at all) I dont give a sh!t about the rest. I think there's quite a few people without "girlfriend" teams.

Maybe it’s because I’ve lived in several NHL cities (Toronto, Montreal, Chicago, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Nashville) since leaving Michigan, that I still love watching all the playoffs. I still watch pretty much all the games.

Now, I don’t care as much as I do since they’re not the Wings. But, I do root just as hard for teams I’m not a fan of to lose (i.e. the Pens need to be (frank)ed this upcoming round)

I guess my second team is kind of Nashville since I live here now for he last eight years. They’ve gotten great as the Wings have declined and the fan base is fanatical. It’s pretty infectious.

I will never root for Brent Burns. It's not his fault, either, it's the NHL's for giving the Norris to a guy that makes Erik Karlsson look like an elite defensive player.

What if you're not "into girls" ?

I still watch all (or most) of the games too. I love hockey no matter what I just dont really care who wins the games the Pens arnt involved in and never cheer for anyone else but the Pens.

FWIW, I at first thought that this article was making up a full team of players in the WC who had the hottest wives/girlfriends.

we are more interested in looking at which teams have the hottest dudes/side-dudes

Maybe not a "girlfriend" team. But as far as the team that I wouldn't mind winning the cup, out of the teams that's left. Vegas, and not really close.
