CALGARY WE'RE PULLIN' FOR YA

AMERICA'S TEAM IS IN.....CALGARY, ALBERTA??? 

How does a team from Canada become America's favorite team. Well, for a couple reasons. First off, they are the UNDERDOG. America loves an underdog. Also, they beat the NHL's equivalent of the Yankees, the Detroit Red Wings. America's team may be a bit of a stretch, but it's strange that every person I ask who they want to win the Stanley Cup comes back with "I'm rooting for the Flames". Style of play, underdog role, or Jarome Iginla. Whatever the reason, a team from Canada appears to be America's team.
