NHL favorite team straw poll (End of Week 1: Devils gaining, but Rangers in control)

[Roy 82]

Grew up in NY as an Islanders fan during their dynasty.

Now a Sharks fan 'cause I live out here and we get to visit with Douglas M. each spring.

Still like Islanders and any other team with a Cornellian on their roster.

Capitals with all my heart. It was so hard to watch O'Byrne playing against them on the Habs last season.  That said, any team with a Cornellian is a team I'll support (at least when not playing my hometown heroes).

Devils. I remember staying up till late in middle school watching the failed cup run in '02, and the successful one in '03. Devils are the reason I like hockey, simply.
