After years of enforced low budgets after so much success, I've become a very very semi- Edmonton supporter (thinking back to that question about 2nd favourite teams, I guess they're it).
They are underdogs no longer though. If they get a goalie watch out! Look at their lineup! Full of speed, skill, grit, heart, everything you want. Ryan Smyth is just one of those battling guys you would love to see in a Habs uniform. And now they have Samsonov. My only beef would be Pronger, who can't seem to dominate games consistently anymore.

I really like Edmonton and Calgary both. A lot of character in both line-ups.
