Will a Canadian team finally end Canada’s Stanley Cup drought? | Jay On SC

Sports betting analyst Todd Fuhrman joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss who he likes in the Maple Leafs-Bruins and Jets-Avalanche matchups, who he likes to come out of the Eastern Conference, and if he thinks a Canadian team can finally end Canada’s Stanley Cup drought.

[@VazzVegas]

The pressure from the media is just too much.

[@red3here]

Who?

[@eaa4773]

Says a fragile Leafs fan I bet. Years of disaster leave a big mark.

[@VazzVegas]

@@eaa4773 The Leafs will never win in our lifetime as long as the media is the way it is. Im a Canucks fan and it's our owner that has fucked us continually over the years. I bet whichever Alberta team you support already has their tee times lined up for the spring.

[@jkim76]

I am ready to support even Oilers or Leafs if they make it to the final. Bring the cup back!

[@tedcity5861]

Never !

there's something wrong with Jay on SC audio volume both on cable and KZbin.. you guys need to look into it

[@js09js09]

I think we should ask Jontay Porter who he thinks is going to win.

[@neostar63]

As a Canucks fan Winnipeg, Edmonton and Toronto. I like my Canucks to go on deep run though not enough experience to win it all.

[@eaa4773]

As a Canadiens fan, if the Leafs get to the Stanley cup final I want them to lose badly. The fall would only be more epic.

[@jetsrno1]

The field is wide open so who knows. Ask me this question after the first round is complete. If all 4 Canadian teams have advanced then it gets really interesting.

[@wainber1]

The Flames and Oilers 2 seasons ago faced off in a conference semi-final, virtually guaranteeing a Canadian conference finalist in a season that didn't feature, outside postseason play, Canadian teams playing each other but not US teams. The Oilers, Jets and Leafs, among Canadian NHL teams, will each be making at least their second straight playoff appearances, with the Jets, having followed their 2018 trip to a conference final, having appeared in postseason play in all but one season (2 seasons ago when they missed but the Flames got in). The Canucks are interesting because they'll be making their first post-2020 playoff appearance starting in under a week's time. I don't want to count them out whatsoever considering that last season the Devils, after a lengthy playoff series wind Road including multiple missed postseasons, finally broke through via a 7-game win of their opening round series against the NYR. Perhaps Jake Allen, who late last winter the Devils acquired from the Habs, will next season provide sufficiently good goaltending to give the Devils a chance to qualify for postseason play but only time will tell if that happens.

[@johnshields6852]

The Jets are a wagon but they need to bring it consistently, I know Hella is all in and he knows this year is their best chance to go all the way, but Dallas is another wagon, playoff hockey, you never know who a dark horse might get hot.

[@Robert-Peterson]

I guess eight straight wins - including 2 consecutive shutouts against their biggest divisional competitors - isn't "consistent" enough for you? It's hilarious...the only "consistent" thing is how the naysayers keep talking about the two stumbles the Jets had after the All-Star break, all while completely ignoring the entire rest of the season when the Jets where wholly "consistent" in not allowing more than 3 goals for nearly 40 straight games. Dude...glue is not your friend.

[@glenbarr8798]

The hopes are high with Edmonton and Vancouver. The jets could get to the 2nd round. The leafs well they are one and done

[@hockeyguy533]

This is the best chance to win a stanley cup for an canadian team

[@IainMacaulayce]

Winnipeg has the best Canadian team record and the best record in the NHL against the top 7 teams in the NHL.

[@RC30018]

Then Colorado destroyed you guys

[@dylangiles2624]

Probably not possible yes anything is possible. For all we know Nashville and Washington could make the finals I doubt that’ll happen but hey who knows

[@xtrickster6556]

Long answer no. Short answer no

[@cliffordjordan9577]

I like how they posted this gambling addict’s entire resume so that we could take him remotely serious

[@jamaldee2355]

The oilers definitely have the best chance in my opinion

[@MM-ww6yb]

Edmonton or Winnipeg possibly, Vancouver or Toronto not really. Especially not Toronto lol. Bruins in 6

[@84coleR]

It will always be hard for a Canadian team to win because the NHL is 80% American teams lol. Plus its a Canadian game go figure that lol

[@ExoticNibbles2]

Wegotta remember as canadians that the nhl doesn't care about canadian teams because the money is in the states... just remember that most of these amaerican teams are mostly canadians so I guess we can just cheer for the canadians at the end of the day lol

Jets outscored the Avalanche 17-4... why are they not the favorites?

All thanks to Gary Bettman who everyone knows will not allow a cup in Canada while he is commissioner NHLIs rigged and has been for a long time

[@tobinkern5389]

no

[@SSNESS]

No.

[@gladiatiger8978]

So long as Bettman is in charge, nope...

[@red3here]

Maybe.

[@tf72538]

Shameless gambling segment from a guy who knows better. Bail on the bookies, Jay. This nonsense is too much, especially in light of Jontay Porter's lifetime ban.

[@sukhgrewal6015]

I dont understand the persistent gambling ads that get shoved down our throat. Like of course players are going to start gambling.

[@josephfarr2988]

Its all rigged. Bettman has already decided who wins the cup

[@SilverThePeacemaker]

Nope! Canucks and Leafs lose round 1. 😢

[@theadventuresofjimmycrapol8827]

I think Boston will sweep Toronto. Hate to say it - hope my team proves me wrong. Winnipeg seems to be really playing well at the right time - they take Colorado in 6 Edmonton gets either Vegas or LA... most likely Vegas. If Vegas - Edmonton loses in 6 - if LA, Edmonton wins in 6 Vancouver gets Nashville - Vancouver in 7 games

[@rs4cool]

Wait how is Colorado favored? HAHHAHHAHA.

[@saifonlawrence2044]

A Canadian team will not win The Cup this year.

[@rogersalles200]

Won`t happen for as long as Bettman is in charge.

[@Robert-Peterson]

Wow TSN...you are utterly shameless. You dress up a betting commercial as a "discussion" about the teams, but all you're doing is discussing betting odds.

[@whysskrilm8049]

Ugh can we not just get analysis without this gambling shit creeping into every damn segment

[@russellbrown6975]

The leafs won't, jets won't, Canucks maybe , Edmonton is the best choice

[@loganvandyk7090]

Unfortunately no Canadian team will win with bettman in charge. Pretty dumb asking this question to a Vegas season ticket holder considering they basically bought their cup proving that the NHL is nothing but a flashy show and no longer a legitimate sport

[@antonbajbr2008]

Canadian teams have been gifted great draft picks etc, but keep pissing it away. Can't blame it on Bettman when every Canadian team has shit ownership + management.

[@cousinit718]

Im opposed to Edmonton because of the mutiny they did against their former coach.

[@coreycorkum4442]

Won’t be the oilers that’s for sure. People thinking the oilers are winning the cup are delusional they’re no different than the leafs ffs
