What Kind Of Dog Is That NHL Team: Eastern Conference

It's time for the second and final installment of everyone's favourite FOGSquad guest column!

Boston Bruins:

Despite the fact that Zdeno Chara is such an Afghan Hound, the Bruins as a whole are American (muscly) bulldogs.

Buffalo Sabres:

The Sabres are Jack Russell Terriers. This gif is basically Tim Murray attempting to get Connor McDavid. But it's okay that it doesn't work out because someone named Jack is now very important to both the Sabres franchise and the dog breed.

Carolina Hurricanes:

The Hurricanes are Long-Haired Chihuahuas. They're kind of weird and fun. Eddie Lack's presence brings the fluffiness that takes them from regular to long-haired.

Columbus Blue Jackets:

The Blue Jackets are this Internet Dog. They are Twitter savvy and this dog's eyes look kind of like Sergei Bobrovsky's!

Detroit Red Wings:

Border Collies, like the Red Wings, are popular and historically successful at what they do. I also feel like Mike Babcock would like to devote years of his life to Border Collies. I'm sure he was very sad to leave his flock of dogs.

Florida Panthers:

Mop dogs (officially known as Komondors or Whoopi Goldberg dogs) possess a very Jagr-esque quality. Very chaotic. I feel like Luongo would appreciate the look.

Montreal Canadiens:

Lassie dogs. Historic, sometimes to the point where you're like ok why is everyone going on about this? Can we calm down about this old dog/team? But at the end of the day, Lassie will always help you out of a tight spot. Lassie saves you. PK Subban would save me. Carey Price would save me.

New Jersey Devils:

Ghost dogs. Devils are spooky. 

New York Islanders:

The eyes of the corgi say "things will be good soon". Very hip dogs right now.

New York Rangers:

The Rangers are Dalmatians because they're very posh and they don't like the Devils (De vils haha!).

Ottawa Senators:

Erik Karlsson is such a Yorkshire Terrier and he is the only Ottawa Senator I can think of right now.

Philadelphia Flyers:

Orange and white and having a good time, the Flyers are Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers.

Pittsburgh Penguins:

Labradors. They can be gold or black, like the Penguins.  Look at this. I can't even tell who is who.

Tampa Bay Lightning:

Handsome, strong, and likeable.

Toronto Maple Leafs:

The Leafs are Borzois. Borzois are confusing but sort of elegant, like the Leafs.

Washington Capitals:

They literally employ a man named Beagle.
