That Maclean's article is pretty much irrelevant.
For one thing it doesn't say who they polled....only that they polled 'Canadians' I couldn't care less about that...only what hockey fans think. That's why polls by TSN etc.. would hold more value to me.
Secondly, the Leafs and Habs show as the most hated...probably because all the Leaf fans voted against the Habs and vice versa. It doesn't say where they took the results from...Could have been mostly people in Toronto or Montreal?
I'm not surprised to see 50% of Albertans route for the Canucks...again it's not 50% of
hockey fans from Alberta. I am surprised to see that almost 50% of Canadians -not hockey fans, but average Canadians -would rather see an American team take it rather than the Canucks.

Sad, man, sad. It's good to see the majority of your fellow Albertans are not so pathetic and irrational.
There is no law against hating the Canucks; just stop trying to convince us (and yourself) that everyone feels the same. The cold hard facts are in: they don't. Get over it and move on.
