One of the best things about playoff hockey in Toronto is how excited the fans get.

Dart Guy, a fan of the team, has become a legend for his dedication to the team (and his dart/face paint), and the support from fans in the city has been incredible thus far.

 

Nothing sums up how much support the Leafs have from the fans more than Maple Leaf Square.

The area outside of the arena is filled for every game, home or away, and the fans outside are even more crazy and passionate than the fans in the building.

Leaf players and fans will certainly claim they're the best in hockey, and the square is another reason why they feel that way, but Alexander Ovechkin doesn't agree with that thinking.

After Washington's Game 4 win to even the series, Ovi posted this video on Instagram after the Oshie goal to show why Caps fans are the best.

 

 

We love our fans,because they are the best!#letsgocaps

Ovi killed two birds with one stone in the sense that he pretty much trolled Leaf fans while praising Capitals fans, and there's nothing wrong with that at all.

As far as the best fans in the league argument is concerned, Toronto has the advantage on Washington thanks to Dart Guy.

 

 

The #Leafs win again. They may have found a good luck charm. #DartGuy #Dartman

Washington fans won't agree with that though, and rightly so because the entire argument is so subjective, and we imagine they'll aim to prove Ovi right during Game 5 in DC Friday night.
