hailtotheskins69 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Got the idea from the baseball team thread. I just wanna see how many other hockey fans there are on this forum. I am a lifelong Capitals fan and always will be. I am so pumped for the chance to watch them in the playoffs again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to Montreal and I have a close friend who is from Montreal who is a HUGE Canadiens fan. If they're not playing the Caps, I root for them.

aszumilo Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Life long Rangers fan. Growing up in NYC it was a natural thing. Only sport I don't root for NY teams is Football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckus Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 How do people grow up Redskins fans, but not Wizard and Caps fans? I never really got that? Obviously it is mostly due to the fact that both teams sucked for so long. But I just thought people liked all the teams for one area or city. Now I don't mind if people have MORE than one team. Like if someone likes the Lakers and the Wizards, I could care less. But I meet a lot of DC people who hate the Wizards. How does that happen??

SkinsHokieFan Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Easily the Caps. I have watched every heartbreaking playoff series since 1989, although 1998 was a very nice treat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never really got into "The Bullets", I have always been a fan of the Caps. I remember going to a playoff game, I think it was in 1990 against the NJ Devils, what a great time. I really don't watch much hockey, however I will be watching the game this Friday. Ovechkin has caught my interest again,(go ahead and call me a fairweather hockey fan).

SkinsBry Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Pittsburgh Penguins. I used to listen to Caps games on the radio with my dad when I was little then I didn't follow hockey for awhile. I started watching Mario and Jagr and have been a Pens fan since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGreenistheBest Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I'm a Canes fan. Comes from being born in NC. I didn't get into hockey until the Whalers moved and then it was my family that got me into it, so I became a Canes fan. Of course my dad had lived in southern Maryland for a long time which is why he was such a big Skins fan (and why I became one). I still support the Caps though and I do root for the Pens on occasion (as a result of living in Pitt). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started watching Mario and Jagr and have been a Pens fan since. Nearly all my Caps related memories come from Kolbe and the radio team dating back to the series in early 2001 between the Capitals and the Penguins. In addition , the final 3 Caps games of the regular season were all on the radio here since there was no cable back then , or now in this house.

China Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 The Caps. Unfortunately, I didn't get into hockey until I went to school at Michigan State and the won the national championship while I was there. So I missed the epic Capitals - Islanders multiple overtime classic playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WARLORD1863 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 New Jersey Devils!!!! I was born and raised in northern New Jersey, but I was raised to be a Redskin fan by parents who used to live in PG county. I also follow the Nationals, as I refuse to root for a New York team... or a Philly team. But as far as basketball, college football, and hockey... Nets, Rutgers, and the DEVILS!!!

herrmag Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Caps. Maybe a poll for what team we hate most should be started next. I think the overwhelming favorite (or least favorite, depending on how you look at it) would be Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
