For the fear of being called a fair-weather fan, I wanted to make my favorite hockey teams known! In order of importance!
2. Chicago Blackhawks - It was originally because I liked they're logo. I was 10, and didn't know too much about hockey at the time!
3. Dallas Stars - Mike Modano is one of my all-time favorite hockey players.
4. Pheonix Coyotes - They're just a team, thats relatively close to home, that I want to see succeed.
5. Philedelphia Flyers or San Jose Sharks - I can't decide, but have always rooted for these teams
So their you have it! My top five! Sorry Matt, no Avs. I still root for them, unless they're playing one of the above mentioned teams. They're just not in my top five, maybe my top ten!

I don't know if the Avs are in MY top ten right now... Oh well. Not bad choices. I too would love to see the Yotes succeed. I'm a big fan of Gretzky as a coach and his players seem to love him. Give his group time to gel and grow, and trade for a puck-moving defenseman, and they are a playoff team.
I've become more of a fan of players than of teams recently, so here's my current faves, for the record:
1 - Super Joe Sakic (recently voted by players as the most respected player in the league)
2 - Sidney Crosby (few match him for overall intensity and passion for the game)
3 - Dion Phaneuf (everything an NHL defensemen should be)
4 - Adam Foote (no one sacrifices more. His body and well-being comes in second place behind the good of the team. Few players still play that way)
5 - Ian Laperriere (the ultimate team player. No one sticks up for his players like Lappy. He will fight for anyone)
