I'm conflicted. I've never been a Canucks fan. If I can be classified, i would say I'm a Leafs fan first, but perhaps Original 6 support second. So I should be happy for Boston to win. But the swirl around me is that I should be patriotic and support Vancouver. Still the team doesn't strike me as having any personality - more of a collection of elite-ish players. And being a Toronto supporter, I have always appreciated the blue-collar effort that teams like Boston & Toronto put forward. A never say die attitude.

As for patriotism, I think that last time I counted, both teams had 17 Canadians on their rosters. So other than venue, it's a dead heat.
