Whether our beloved NJ Devils are in our out of the playoffs and assuming you are a "hockey" fan and just not a "Devils" fan....who else are you rooting for in the Eastern and Western conferences?  Again this is who you are rooting for and perhaps why....not who you think will win.  Thanks.

I am rooting for:

East: Toss up between Buffalo (how can you not appreciate Ryan Miller and Lindy Ruff?) and Boston (Claude Julien we still love you)

West: Phoenix (Feel good story of the year...a team on the brink  of disaster that returns to almost capture the President's trophy...oh yeah...and they have Shane Doan. If you don't like Shane Doan you probably hate yourself too.)

NOTE: Changed the original post a bit. The idea was to find out what teams we as common Devils fans admire not who we are/will root for if or when the Devils are eliminated.
