The New Jersey Devils haven’t had a cut-and-dry rooting interest in the Stanley Cup Final in a long time. Fans were obviously rooting for the Devils in 2012 and against the New York Rangers in 2014, but since then it’s been a guessing game. This season is no different. The Montreal Canadiens are looking to extend their record with a 25th Stanley Cup win. In fact, the Canadiens only lost nine of their previous 34 appearances.
