Sens fans have no such problem
Oiler fan Cosh says:
"...there's a lot of local sentiment in Edmonton that Oilers fans should be pulling for the Flames, our homegrown Jarome, and "Alberta hockey" in the playoffs. I'm afraid I can't entirely sign on to this new concept of nationalistic decorum."
I don't detect much sentiment here in Ottawa to root for the Leafs - could be perhaps most Ottawan's and probably most Canadians consider those American wanna-be's with their NFL dreams and MLB and NBA teams barely a part a of this country's sporting scene anyways - wonder why the Brier won't go to Toronto, or the Grey Cup won't return for a long long time - or why the Vanier Cup is an attendance embarassment?
