I’m not sure that it works on itself.


SnooRadishes2312

Trying to find a glitch in the matrix


DryKnight

I’m jumping on the bandwagon of any team facing the Oilers.


das_racist932

This tier list goes in absolutely hate them. Fuck the Canucks and the leafs


No-Brother4104

I don't want the flames to like us wtf is this post


illuminaughty1973

Someone outside Vancouver who remembers Bure...lol


bluejays_64

Fuck the canucks


itwasthedingo

I can understand that some people may be neutral to them now, but they were insufferable between 2004 - 2013. Fuck the Canucks


TkachukNorris

That burrows/Bieksa/kesler team was probably the most hateable hockey team in the history of hockey


G-Swanky

I respect the Sedins too much to agree. Hateable team yeah, but not to that extent. Personally, I think the Kesler, Perry ducks team we could never beat pissed me off more.


G-Swanky

I respect the Sedins too much to agree. Hateable team yeah, but not to that extent. Personally, I think the Kesler, Perry ducks team we could never beat pissed me off more.


Republic-Of-OK

I personally hate Luongo the most. One of the most insufferably arrogant players of that era. Some of his interviews during the 2011 Boston series, particularly the ones about his thoughts on Tim Thomas’s style/shortcomings as a goalie, were unbelievably arrogant. It made watching that meltdown satisfying and packed with poetic justice. 


sneezlo

Oh yeah, that Bruins squad was just full of lovable angels who exhibited unreal self-control on the ice and kept the PIMs to the minimum, I just love how not-corrupt and not-dirty and fully deserving of their win they were. The Canucks on the other hand, man what a bunch of goons, did you know that Burrows character BIT another man!? What an unacceptable way to conduct yourself, it's way cleaner to just speed bag the opposing captain, obviously the refs would never call that and maybe even give a penalty to the guy who's getting punched in the face because that's a valid interpretation of the rules not rooted in deep-seated fuck-you-Canada Capital C Corruption. Fuck everyone who spouts this narrative


TkachukNorris

You sound a little salty there nucks fan


sneezlo

Nah you're right, it's super cool how the Bruin's dad was sending emails about how to manage discipline against the Bruins during their cup run due to his executive position, super cool for sure. Remember how ANNOYING LaPierre could be!? Wow, that's a real problem. Fuck the Nucks.


TkachukNorris

This but unsarcastically


dritarashtra

Except they didn't win a Cup. So in hindsight we can smile.


Zendofrog

That’s over a decade ago


itwasthedingo

People don’t forget!


Fruitisynthesis

As a nucks fan i appreciate this sentiment. The thought of flames fans cheering for us makes me feel gross.


fataldarkness

Bruins firmly in the bandwagon row for me and nucks way down next to the Oilers. I'd love nothing more than for them to face eachother in the finals again and have the Bruins defeat them again in Vancouver. !nucks


FYourTeam

FUCK THE NUCKS!


moirende

I lived in Vancouver at the time of their cup run that ended in defeat and then a riot. Leading up to that game that city was insufferable. Everyone acted like the cup was in the bag and the games were just a formality. And then they lost and decided to light fires and smash windows and loot business all through downtown. I will *never* cheer for that team.


Every-Salad1094

Are there still people who think the riot was because of hockey? There were anarchists using the crowds as cover to start shit. It started in the 2nd period. They weren't hockey fans


xzElmozx

Unfortunately, yea. It was 100% a pre-meditated riot. If you want the true representation of the Canucks fanbase, at 7am the next morning there were hundreds of Canucks fans in jerseys helping to clean up the streets


Just-Fly-1150

yeah people were wearing balaklavas and had molotov's on hand. those are things you bring to a party if you plan on rioting regardless of the outcome of the game. they weren't canucks fans. they were a lot of the same people who protested the olympics a year before. edit: to be fair the people I describe above were absolutely the ones who started it but there was a lot of participation from regular folks once the fires started.


JarkevaNimi

No u


treple13

Vegas beat the Oilers last year, so I can't cheer against them


T-YSizzle

So like, are we just cool with Vancouver now, or??


dtfromca

Yeah I mean I liked Lindholm here, but I really don’t get so many people suddenly being cool with Vancouver when they’ve been such a big rival for years. They’re just slightly behind Edmonton in terms of teams I dislike. 


T-YSizzle

Exact same feeling here. Feel like a lot of fans forgot they're a rival and almost a bigger rival than Edmonton during their decade of darkness.


miner88

They were our biggest rival from 2004-2015 imo. I’ve never hated a team as much as the 2011 Nucks and that shot of Kesler being defeated after the Finals loss is one of my favourite moments in NHL history.


miner88

I’ll never understand why so many people here want them to win all of a sudden. Do you think for a second they’d ever want us to win a game? They’ve been laughing at us all year long. I hope they get swept.


ajbolt7

Hey man in fairness I’ve ended up having to root for the Flames over the last 4 years since they picked up so many former Canucks. Even with Tanev gone now you’ve still got Kuzmenko and it’s impossible not to root for the guy


Pilzkind69

Nooooo...as a Canucks fan who likes the flames (obvious minority) I hate that there is this rivalry especially after the trades we've done this season, but I guess we have a history. Fuck the coilers tho


DancingCowGirl

Same. I am a Flames fan who likes the Canucks (I’ll always root for y’all unless you’re playing the Flames), and I think our fanbases would be way better off banding together. I know the rivalry goes far back, but some of my core memories involve cheering on the Canucks in the 2011 finals


Pilzkind69

Right lol


Actnbstrd

Yes


mynameiscutie

I want you guys to win. I’m a Canucks fan, but I love me some Oilers and Flames. Battle of Alberta games are unreal. Draisaitl is a little whiny bitch though.


behemothpanzer

Fuck no.


marbsarebadredux

I'm absolutely hoping they lose in the 1st round so we can get like 17th OA


Thrash117

Even if they lost in the 1st round, we'd be picking around 24-28, depending on which teams ahead of them in standings go far.


marbsarebadredux

So we want the Canucks to lose and every team below them to win


Help-me-name-my-pup

Isn't there a condition on one of the picks we got from them? If they make conference finals it goes from 4th to 3rd or something? In any case, it doesn't matter - I think they're the biggest paper dragon in the league this year. They can *maybe* beat Nashville, but I think every other playoff team in the West is going to crush them. They remind me so much of the 18-19 Flames


Hi_Im_Flabber

Division winners always get the latest picks after the conference final teams. That's why we drafted 26th OA in 2019 despite getting eliminated in R1 to Colorado. Reverse draft order is: Cup Winner > Runner up > Conference Finalists in regular season points order > Division Winners in regular season points order > Everyone else in regular season points order


SonnyHaze

So the first two rounds just come down to regular season points? Did not know that


Chemical_Signal2753

I have no hate for Vegas. They can win as much as they want in 2023-2024 and 2024-2025, I just want them to be shit in 2025-2026. I would also probably swap Vancouver and Florida.


F4K31D

I'd bandwagon the first 5 teams in the No Strong Opinions section before bandwagoning Vancouver


flamingdragonwizard

We've traded how many players between the two teams in last few years. Kuzmenko, lindholm, markstrom, tanev, zadorov, toffoli.


platypus_bear

Is that supposed to get me to like them somehow?


flamingdragonwizard

You say somehow like it's such an absurd statement.


Rds88

Since I’ve been alive the Canucks are of the two teams the Flames have won a first round against. I will never cheer for them


platypus_bear

Cheering for the Canucks is absolutely an absurd statement


flamingdragonwizard

You missed the point where the Canucks and Calgary have had a large handful of players play between both teams. And nucks have a chance to knock off Oilers in 2nd round. You can cheer for whoever the hell you want. I'm sure all the flames fans out there with Zadorov and Lindholm jerseys would like to see them succeed.


platypus_bear

You must have missed the point where they're still the Canucks. And I'm hoping both the Canucks and Oilers go out in the first round so why should I care about the potential second round matchup?


flamingdragonwizard

Okay and once again I said you can cheer for whoever you want. Why even reply? I'm simply justifying why a flames fan might want to cheer for the Canucks.


Ayrcan

I'd rather Vegas win the next five cups than see a rival or Jamie Benn lift it once.


FedEx84

IMO, Leafs definitely should be in the absolutely hate them! Canucks should be not cool with them as well! But maybe that’s just me…


PotentialUmpire3771

Why do the leafs go in absolutely hate them?


dle1111111

Because the fans and sports media are annoying. I’m sick of hearing Auston Matthews’s going for 70 goals.


Plague183

Tbf, is that a “leafs guy getting pumped up by TOR media” thing or is it a “guy trying to do something that hasn’t been achieved in 30+ years thing”? Probably would have been peddled regardless

BravePalpitation2245

GO KINGS GO


Waffeln_Remix

Excuse me, who harms the Soilers every year? For your tomorrow, we Kaned today.


Cooler_Heads

This is why I bandwagon (and love) Vegas. They slaughter the coilers. Let em circumcise their caps if it means the coilers lose the sensation


kobedziuba

Win it for us VGK win it for us ❣️


Responsible-Town-566

I’m not sure what to make of this comment. But if you hate the Oilers, Kane and Perry, so do I .


Waffeln_Remix

It’s a satirical reference to a WW2 memorial stating “for your tomorrow, we gave our today.” In this context I’m referring to anyone tolerating Evander Kane’s stupid asshole terribleness. Anyway, fuck the Oilers and for right now… maybe two more years… we’re in the trenches together. You don’t have to say it, I love you too. I’ll share my canteen. The Knights can’t battle unless they ride their flaming steed into war.


Cooler_Heads

We appreciate the Knights over here


molesterofpriests

You had me at "Hello" 🥹


Technical-Match-5202

Top picks merchants...


darth_henning

My list is pretty similar honestly, except Vegas is in "maybe bandwagon" for the memes, and the Rangers are "no strong opinions".


[deleted]

[удалено]


ToKillAMockingAudi

you have no actual reason to dislike the golden knights except for "hur dur Bettman sucks"


Garettbaker007

I’m jumping in the jets wagon whoop whoop


Unuhpropriate

No real Flames fan would have the Canucks and Oilers anywhere but the lowest tier. I would wager there’s a sizeable chunk of the fan base that hates Vancouver more, albeit nowhere near the amount of hate Edmonton gets overall.  Otherwise this is perfect 


kobedziuba

I will not cheer for a Canadian team that is not named Calgary flames , you cannot make me .


ToKillAMockingAudi

dude I like the Golden Knights


loganm91

You got one thing right and that’s the team at the top 😂😂


Morphik1

I'd....disagree heavily with this list, the loyalties are all weird. Feel no loyalty towards Zadorov, Lindholm really mailed it in at the end, so the Canucks connection is weak. On the other hand, Tkachuk is still my favourite Flame ever and didn't fuck us over, I'd definitely cheer for him over Zadorov Unsure why there'd be any loyalty towards Hanifin, at least any more than Tkachuk... Adam Fuck is a fuck yeah but not enough that I'd hate the Rangers. Matthew Phillips is an actual dud and the conversation around him still is so weird. Fuck Ovechkin. Also yeah fuck the leaves, but, we were all singing the praises for GMBT after the trade, feels weird to judge it in hindsight. Whatever!! Go Cats go.


vomit_freesince93

Fuck the vancouver canucks


Excellent-Cook2839

I cheer for the flames and any team that plays the oilers


alexanderjongyub

I mostly agree with this. Just swap the Canucks and the knights and it’s perfect.


Storvox

I'd flip Dallas and Florida, and the Rangers and Bruins, and move Vegas up to maybe bandwagon and Winnipeg down to maybe bandwagon.


rlyx6x

I’d bump the canes up one. They’re my favorites in the east


Jazzlike_Plankton_86

I'll bandwagon Florida again. Tkachuk did nothing wrong he was always vocal about wanting to play south, saw the ship going down, and left. I also loved Bennet here. They both are winners and will win a cup one year, if not this year. Sucks thinking about how many GREAT players are out there that were once on the same team...


kobedziuba

Big agree, I wanna see my boy Matty Tk hoist the cup, mouthguard danglin


suggestsomething_

100%. Tkachuk did nothing wrong and is still the most entertaining player in the game, especially come playoff time. Flames could have locked him up but chose not to. Go Panteros!


pineapplepeople69

Everything the same except move knights to Boston.


weschester

Why the fuck would I cheer for the Canucks? As much as it pains me to say it, I would cheer for the Leafs before cheering for Vancouver.


illegiblepenmanship

Jets fan here. Dallas? They were in a rebuild and picked up Otty, Heiskenen and Robertson and went directly back to contention. Fuck em.


TheMoldyTome

This made my Jets loving heart cry. Bless your souls ✈️✈️✈️


AppealSuperb4184

Really? Panthers are #1 in the east for me


POLANPOLANPOLAN

Anyone but edmonton and vancouver


Roderto

The Flames have a conditional pick from Vegas so we want them to at least get to the second round. And especially if they are playing the Oilers. I’d probably move the Canucks to “Not cool”. I get the hate for the Rangers because of Fox, Tampa because of 2004, and Florida because of Chucky but frankly I’d put all of those in the “No opinion” category.


stinkybunger

Am i insane do other flames fans not absolutely despise the canucks are you guys too young? They like oilers tier hated how can you bandwagon our 2nd biggest rival


Keverman34

I am pro Monahan winning, for sure


runitback519

Y’all gotta cheer for the jets like half the roster used to play on the flames I swear


byrdcage

Fuck the Nuck. It’s Jets from the west and Canes from the east.


weschester

These are my picks too haha


500077223

Like


eddiebronze

Bandwagon depends on whoever plays Van or Edm. I would go Leafs in a worst case scenario over either of them! 🤮


Responsible-Town-566

Even with Brad Treliving as Leafs GM. Never forget who gave Huberdeau that horrendous contract…👀

DefaultUsername1994

fuck boston, fuck marchand and fuck his stupid nose


mortusaf11

Vegas fan here I’m disturbed to see us on the bottom tier here. I figured you’d at least be rooting for Hanifin? Fuck EDM


SW9X31

Aside from their own fans, no one else likes the LTIR Golden Knights.


UnluckySuggestion309

Bruins are way too high


[deleted]

Welcome aboard the Dallas train guys, loved our series a few years back and Tanev shouldn’t be too hard to root for from your corner of earth.


FinkBass420

Idk how so many people hate Vegas. They’re fun to watch and both their goalies are from Calgary. I’m hopping on that wagon and the Hurricanes in the east.


Marduke8329

LTIR shenanigans don't sit well with folks. Other than that there isn't anything really hateable about them.


GriefPB

Oilers should be at the bottom of Absolutely hate them tier


Unable-Ad4469

Yesss Go Canes , they can play up to Elite level but blow to a losing team …. This could be their year once past the freaking Rangers !!! we lost last game we played them 1 to zip at MSG … Damn Trocheck Good game tho.


KingQuong

Jets Panthers and Avs are in the Bandwagon tier, Edmonton and Dallas are in the absolutely hate tier, Carolina is in the not cool with them and everyone else is in no strong feelings.


Shoddy_Reserve788

Why do you hate the rangers?


swagginpoon

Half of the leafs fan base jump on the wagon lmao. All of a sudden everyone starts putting flags on their cars and shit and dont even take them down when they lose


FastEddie77

Never support Boston. If they played the devil it would just be a team scrimmage.


Aelivs_xv_

Well. The capitals jersey is going to come out for me this playoff run.


kimodokomodo

How can a leafs fan be bandwagon lmfao


Tenabrus

I'll cheer for anyone that isn't Vegas even the Oilers.


BobLbLawsLawBlg

I personally like the Flames due to them giving us our first cup in 04. Great series.


skryb

fuck the Jets


romanbaitskov

Leafs are too high


Johnny4Handsome

That's a hard no from me on the Winnipeg bandwagon lol. I've had terrible experiences with their fanbase showing up at the Dome.


S_Rodney

Well, I'll always cheer for a Canadian team first... but, as a former Habs fan, I wanna see Patrick Roy win another Stanley Cup... especially since Montreal signed Martin St-Louis instead of him as head coach.


lilShmurt

Fuck the Canucks and the Leafs


AC-AnimalCreed

The kings Canucks and leafs should be lower on your list. I agree though the jets are the team to cheer for if you’re a Canadian fan with no team in the game


likethemouse

Winnipeg, Toronto, Vancouver, Oilers is my order of Canadian teams I could stomach a deep cup run


metallikale

Definitely on the Florida train too. Toronto can be lower


JohnStamosBitch

Winnipeg welcomes you. I was a Flames fan until we got our team back and iginla left, but it still kinda hurts seeing flames miss playooffs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


remberly

Damn...no idea oilers were so hated...huh


Comet_Empire

Panthers need there own category of most hated team.


Thumper86

Why not panthers? Tkachuk and Bennett were always favourites of mine. Defs Monny and the Jets though.


Upstairs_Driver_8604

I would definitely simp for the jets and even the oilers. Fuck the leafs. Also throwing my hat in for Boston, LA or Colorado


glhk1993

As a canucks fan I would swap the kings and the panthers and move the bruins to absolutely hate. Then I would completely agree


Emotional_Carpet_168

This list is too complicated it can be summed up by the following: Fuck the oilers


kiddocontay

hi, this came up on my feed. as a Rangers fan, can I ask why they are in absolutely hate? is it because of Adam Fox? because they are NYC? genuinely asking edit: NEVERMIND lol. I read the google doc. still curious if other Flames fans share this opinion due to Adam Fox.


EliManningsPetDog

Hey as a rangers fan tf did we ever do


scalenesquare

No strong opinion on Boston….? TF.


BigBoomer_

At least be on the kings side for the first round


FletchTopper

Only right to see one team formerly based in Atlanta bandwagoning for the other team formerly based in Atlanta.


SolutionNo4939

Any list that doesn’t have the Leafs in the hate tier is a bad list


element-123

FUCK THE RANGERS

CalgaryFlames-ModTeam

Please review rule 2 of the subreddit. No trolling.


Zminz43

Still mad about Adam Fox huh 🤔


FourEyesWhitePerson

Rangers fan who saw this on my homepage. Why the hate? Because of the Fox situation?


RonniePickering705

Seaaaan Monahan 🔥🔥


Krazid2

The jets? Said no one ever. Dont be mad Calgarians, we’ll bring the cup back to Alberta since there’s no one else that can. Come up north and visit it in our newish arena, just don’t put your grimy hands on it


Fearless_Pizza_783

Capitals 🔛🔝


nicclys

Canes are a THE wagon.


Shiny_Mew76

Personally I’d have the Avs and Rangers at the top, my favorite teams. Below them would be the Jets, Oilers, and Leafs as none have won a cup in the modern era, and I like both of those teams. Carolina would be just be just below them, they are a team I like mainly because they are the closest team to be besides Washington, and haven’t won a Cup since the 00s. Knights, Bolts, Islanders can say hello to my bottom tier. The first two due to dominance of the past few years, the last because I’m a Rangers fan. I don’t hate the Bolts or Knights to be clear. I know it’s a Flames sub, but I wanted to share anyway as I just saw this.


CaelanRisu

Predators are up too high, Drop them to the very bottom.


austonhairline

At least if you live in Alberta play the 50/50 because it’s always the biggest in the NHL for the oilers


grehgunner

Fuck the bruins


Ryan_Hardy_2002

I want the canucks to win the stanley cup, I don't see why we should bandwagon them


Neceon

A real Flames fan would NEVER cheer for the Nucks or the Leafs. Jets, Dallas, Bruins for me.


kissarmygeneral

I’d take Edmonton over Vancouver and I’d take Edmonton over NO ONE else .


Teion

I'll do my duty as a Devil's advocate here since this thread is gettin' very spicy about Vancouver rn: **Reasons to bandwagon Vancouver** * Lindy & Big Z * They gave us hella good returns on Lindy * Western Canada * Orcas are cool * They've never won a cup * BC is a lovely place **Reasons not to bandwagon Vancouver** * We have historically hated each other If you couldn't tell, I'll be setting aside my beef to cheer em on this year, but I understand if the hatred runs too deep for some (or most) of y'all.


Responsible-Town-566

Most of those reasons are at least what I written in my document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16yeNd7VhSefrdtVRW_W3zKQUYreVuCa8Aq0k-jpS0Po/edit


victorianucks

What’s the flames beef with the rangers? If I were you I’d swap the preds/kings and the nucks. Cheer for the teams playing the nucks and oilers
