I'm rooting for the "Canadian" team!

In the leadup to the NHL Playoffs I've heard many, many people say: "Now that my favourite or local team (Habs, Leafs etc) are out of the running .. I'll be cheering for the Canadian team: the Vancouver Canucks" or "The Cup belongs in Canada" etc.  But are the Vancouver Canucks, whos' team name itself is a slang word for Canadian, really the most Canadian team?


Vancouver (26 players) 14 Canadians, 5 Americans, 7 Intl'


Nope!  I'll be cheering for Boston because they've got more Canadians on their roster, including two local boys from Welland: Nathan Horton and Daniel Paille
