Voting Question: Which NHL teams do you think have a large fanbase?
These are the teams in my opinion
Eastern Conference
- Montreal Canadiens - Hey they have 24 Stanley Cups, and the oldest team in the franchise. (NOT my favorite)
- Boston Bruins - The history of the Big Bad Bruins explains their tough nature. Also the 1st American NHL team.
- New York Rangers - Some of history's hockey players like Messier, Gretzky, and Jagr have helped this team become one of the best.
- Pittsburgh Penguins - Their youth, the attributes of Mario Lemieux have helped gain fandom to Steel City's Young Guns.
- New Jersey Devils - Martin Brodeur has helped this team around, just like Patrick Roy of Montreal did.
- Philadelphia Flyers - Like the Bruins, only dirtier.
Western Conference
- Detroit Red Wings - Arguably the Best in the West, Detroit ain't called Hockeytown for nothing.
- Chicago Blackhawks - They also have a rabid hockey history, and their fans are proud.
- Edmonton Oilers - You can thank Wayne Gretzky and Mark Messier for making the Oilers a dynasty.
- Calgary Flames - Also a wild hockey team. Then again, both the Alberta teams are wild.
- Colorado Avalanche - As Detroit's rival, why not?
- Dallas Stars - The past of the Minnesota North Stars should explain.
