Emily Kaplan, national NHL reporter: OK, Leafs and Capitals aside, I'm tempted to pick the Flyers considering the hysteria we saw in Philadelphia after the Eagles' Super Bowl win on Sunday. Philly's a fervent sports city that can get behind its teams, in good times and bad, but especially when they win that jawn. Philadelphia won the Stanley Cup in 1974 and then again in 1975. Despite making the Stanley Cup final six more times -- most recently in 2009-10 -- they haven't been able to seal the deal since. It's been a tantalizing stretch for a franchise that ranks second all time in points percentage (.
Which long-suffering fan base is most deserving of a Stanley Cup this spring?
