I don't think what he did showed any allegiance to Carolina. I think it was meant more for the honour of the game. Two teams he probably loves very much, having ties to Pittsburgh and living in Carolina put their hearts on the line in a best of seven series for the Eastern Conference title. I think this was his way of cheering them BOTH on. Even though he did it in Carolina.

I still believe he gave the Canes bad karma.Many Steelers fans are Pens' fans too.I wonder what tye of welcome he will get when he isin Pittsburgh.

As i live in Pittsburgh, seeing him supporting the canes i thought was a slap in the face of the many pittsburgh fans whether the steelers, the pens, or the pirates.
Then during the game he stated that he was rooting for the canes, but if they didnt make it he would then root for the pens for the finals.
So basically since he lives in NC he is cheering for them but pittsburgh comes last when it comes to rooting for a team.
Im sure alot of people in the pittsburgh area were displeased with his comments and presence.
