Hockey-How I Pick Who to Root For

Okay so in viewing how the playoffs go for me there is a ranking of who I root for. It goes like this

The Habs,
The Red Wings,
Toronto,
Any team from Canada over any American team,
Original Six over expansion
Eastern over Western teams
Northern over Southern teams,
If any of the above don’t apply the team with the most MSU connections, or
Against any team with U of M ties.

That is it in a nutshell.

You live in Michigan, buddy boy, root for Red Wings! Plus you know, the Wings signed MSU's Justin Abdelkader, one of MSU's top players for the past 3 years, and he is with the actual Red Wings now, not a farm team. The kid just turned 21 years old, is from Muskegon, has always idolized Steve Yzerman - he is living a dream come true right now, playing with the Red Wings. You gotta root for that kind of karma!
