I'm cheering for my Red Wings mainly but my 2nd team which I'm going to cheer for this year is the Rangers. Nick can you make a weekly video on major games to watch out for each week?
I'm a Browns fan getting into hockey because of advice from Pat McAfee. I'm choosing the ducks as my team. I'm used to disappointment so I should well prepared.
Oh no! I just started watching hockey with the playoffs last year and I found myself falling in love with the Rangers and especially Shesterkin. (I also live upstate.) I just bought a jersey for the new season. Damn. Is this gonna be my life now? Lol
@@oatmealtruck7811my father made sure that I was born into the pain of being a Rangers, Jets, Mets and Knicks fan. He was born in 1938 and had me late in his life. I was 8 years old in ‘94 when The Rangers won the cup. He’d been waiting almost his whole life to see it (they won in 1940, but that’s almost like my Mets winning when I was a few months old) I’ll never forget that moment. He’s gone now so I can’t speak for him, but I feel like he’d tell you that the wait made it that much sweeter. At least you picked a good time to get on the train. We have a really good team
@@zacmedress7263 that’s a really wonderful story about your dad. May he rest in peace, friend. 5 month update, btw: I’m DEEP in this. It’s unreal. I couldn’t calm down if I wanted to. Thought I loved football (still do), but MAN OH MAN NOW I’M A HOCKEY FAN. I’m in for life now. LGR.
0:40 New York Rangers 1:35 Washington Capitals 2:18 Anaheim Ducks 2:58 Winnipeg Jets 3:57 Ottawa Senators 4:50 Minnesota Wild 5:45 Arizona Coyotes 6:41 Los Angeles Kings 7:27 Chicago Blackhawks 8:30 New York Islanders 9:26 Seattle Kraken 10:26 New Jersey Devils 11:34 Buffalo Sabres 12:53 St. Louis Blues 13:58 Colorado Avalanche 14:56 Calgary Flames 15:51 Carolina Hurricanes 16:45 Columbus Blue Jackets 17:53 Vegas Golden Knights 18:57 Montréal Canadiens 19:43 Nashville Predators 20:46 Edmonton Oilers 22:02 Vancouver Canucks 22:58 Detroit Red Wings 24:21 Boston Bruins 25:26 Florida Panthers 26:38 Philadelphia Flyers 27:48 San Jose Sharks 28:51 Pittsburgh Penguins 29:57 Toronto Maple Leafs 31:04 Tampa Bay Lightning 32:02 Dallas Stars
I started watching the NHL during the last playoffs, really liked the Kraken and the Devils. However I don´t wanna be a bandwagon fan, so I´ll be looking forward for those teams, while watching some other games to truly find my team. Also, as I´m very impressed by the Maple Leaf´s and Canucks´ season openers, same with Bedard first two games, so idk, maybe I´ll look after them too
As a new hockey fan I could have chosen anybody to be my team but I decided I must stay with what’s closest and since I am and die hard 49ers, Warriors, and Giants fan, I must ride out the rough times with the sharks 😂 still loving hockey nonetheless and I’ve already seen that this sport clearly has the best playoffs of any sport. The physicality and passion on the ice is also another factor that has me hooked on hockey as well
@@TwistedWristerHockey oh I sat through the 2014-2019 49ers and man those were some rough days so I think I’m gonna stick around lol, not like the giants and warriors are doing too much better right now anyways 🤷♂️
@@key-nj3vi So true. This last decade for the Giants has been awful. At least while they struggled in the 2000s, they had Bonds at the plate and Timmy & Posey in the farm system.
Not a natural Cbus fan myself, but if you're new and want a team thats going to be getting better as you watch them, they're the perfect team they already have a decent defense, a couple older wingers who are pretty good, but they also have 3 VERY good defensemen coming up, one of the best centermen coming up, and some other very good young peices that will help them contend for years as long as they stay the course.
I've been a casual AT BEST Sharks fan for a while but it's hard to fully get into it because their games are on at 1030 EST. I want an east coast team that's obviously not great right now because I'm not tryna be one of those bandwagon fans. I want to actually become a diehard hockey fan
@DaSpurTitan won't be a bandwagon fan following Columbus, as of right now they're probably the least cared about team in the east right now. And I see people constantly underrate them because they had a bad year last year. I still don't expect them to make the playoffs this year but I think they're better than people expect. And they have a very bright future, especially on defense.
Fortunately, each of the 16 Eastern Conference teams play in the eastern time zone. So you could chose anyone from the Red Wings, to the Panthers, to the Canadiens...now it's just a matter of what type of team you would enjoy supporting :)
I'm from UK and have only preferred the Western Conference namely Colorado Avalanche, timezone is not even an issue, lifetime fan since 95 got 2 of the top 5 players in the NHL and are stacked AF, can't go wrong with the avs
@@TwistedWristerHockey yup, Latvia is one of three countries in the world (along with Canada and Finland) where Hockey is the most popular/watched sport. We also got a medal in this years IIHF championship for the first time in history. And yeah, Raitis was a great player 💪
Regardless of who everyone else around me is a fan of, I chose the Blackhawks. And now I'm a diehard fan. I went my own way and love it! Highs and lows, no matter what!😎
I like 14 teams 7 in east and 7 in west top 4 in east are Panthers, Bruins, Lightning, leafs. Bottom 3 in n east caps Carolina and devils. Top 4 in west Avalanche, Stars, Kings Vegas. Bottom 3 west Ducks, Blackhaws, Coyotes.
Just getting into hockey 2023 November. I live in Iowa so I watch iowa wild in Des Moines. So I've been watching Minnesota Wild, Colorado avalanche cuz I'm a denver broncos fan.
Ducks 🦆🦆🦆I was their fan since I was 7 because they had sick logo. So I Ioved Teemu and Paul in that time. They don't have sick logo rn, it looks like flying shit. Their last seasons were terrible, but I see we have a great future ahead. Leo, Trevor, Mason, Pavel or Lukas Dostal... I love watching those young players. We just need to develop them carefuly. I also really like signing of Radko Gudas, he's the defender we needed last years. Though guy with great body usage. Love it.
My Red Wings and Rangers are up there for teams to watch for. Can't wait to see what they do. And hopefully I dont need a second team to cheer for this year finally.
I have really enjoyed the hurricanes, they have a unique play style that doesn't count on individual players and they are not frequently talked about. The only other team I pay attention to is the kraken. Both teams I have lived close to.
Totally! I have my absolute favorite team that will never change, but I have two Eastern teams that I follow extensively. It's also fun to have a backup team if your main team is going through a lengthy playoff drought.
I've just gotten into hockey in the last week or so. I picked Seattle Kraken to be my team and I am so happy with my choice. I love the energy of the team.
You should personally cheer for the Boston Bruins, this year they broke a record, made it to the playoffs. And played great, with 6 Stanley Cup wins. Boston plays great every year. And I’m from Springfield, MA, that’s why you should root for the Bruins!
washington commanders/wizards fan, but i'm from indiana. thinking about choosing the capitals because of the whole washington thing, but love the avalanche and their branding. very conflicted. which one has a better future outlook?
I can't fault you for that, but I think they'll start to takes steps forward next year (even if it doesn't show in the standings). I'm curious to see if the Yotes can steal a playoff spot in a weakening division. Anyway, I'll link you to my Sharks season preview in case you wanna have a listen th-cam.com/video/1YxAmMh6Bec/w-d-xo.html
Oh man, I'm nowhere near as clued into today's NFL as I am the NHL 😅 And at this point, I'll probably tune out the NFL with my Vikings being 0-2 already lol.
my 3 teams in this order.. Knights, Aves, blackhawks. Always been a fan of each been a longer fan of the hawks cause they we my first hockey team I liked and the knights have not come to vegas yet. If i had a 4th it is the Jets. Did these comments come from your discord?
Comment from the Islanders guy, Horvat ok I can see the justification of mentioning him, but why would u even mention first full year of Engvall lol.......ooh cant wait to see what a full year of Engvall will do for a team! Lol. No disrespects, just thought that comment was funny that's all lol anyhoo...cheers all!
WOW, congratulations! You must be absolutely fired up 🦑🎉🙌 Hopefully they've got some great perks and a tankful of awesome coworkers you'll enjoy getting to know :)
i just want another sport to watch. i only watch the nfl and it gets slow sometimes. i know nothing about hockey but am thinking about getting into watching it because i seems very entertaining. basketball seems like just an hour of squeaking, soccer is so boring i cant lie and baseball seems cool but slow.
I’m giving hockey a shot after hearing that the NHL is banning pride tape. Which team goes the least out of its way to pander to “pride”? That’ll be the one I’ll root for.
Then you'll be sad to learn that Pride tape is now acceptable. No one is pandering to anything. You have to ask yourself why Putin will let the Russian players wear camouflage and honor the American military but he and they are afraid of us queers.
Did you have a traumatic experience with a rainbow as a child? It's really weird to care at all about the color of a player's tape. It doesn't affect you at all. Why the hate?
I’m going to NYC from Bristol, UK, on Feb 5th-12th next month. Got a ticket for Rangers v Lightning so Rangers have got to be my team🪄My mum is a Glasgow Rangers fan too in footy so it only makes sense
My favorite teams are the Flyers (been watching them since the early 90s, always fun to watch, even when they suck). My second team is the Nashville Predators, they're a very up and down team but they are always a contender in their division and they've been fun to watch build throughout the years especially because I've been able to watch them from day 1 of them being an NHL team. And lastly, Anaheim, largely in honor of my late best friend who absolutely loved the Ducks back in their Mighty Ducks era. Honestly, there is no wrong team to cheer for in the NHL, hockey is a fantastic sport and more people should be watching it!!!
being from Florida, hockey was never on my radar growing up. I recently started following hockey out of curiosity and have found the sport fascinating to watch. The Lightning are my team since I’m from the Tampa area.
New fans would find The Seattle Kraken a fun team to support. 4 lines of chemistry and deep scoring. No true superstars, but Matty Beniers and Jarrod McCann could be those players. Goaltending may be an issue but Grubauer and Daccord may surprise the league. Fun games to watch and a competative division will make for late season drama.
My teams: 1) Avs - I lived in CO for 10 years (Miss you Cody McLeod) 2) Ducks - I live in Tulsa now and their ECHL team (the Oilers) affiliates up to the Ducks 3) Kraken - Who doesn't love t hose jerseys??
I haven’t watched NHL in years. Also I currently don’t have a favorite team. I want to get back into NHL but, I am not sure what team to have as my favorite. I won’t pay for NHL channel , network, or any games that I need to pay to watch. So what team should I be a fan of that has a lot of games that get put on TV nationally, and are fun to watch ?
I'm a new NHL fan and I think I'll just pick my team based on my gut feeling and natural attraction to a certain team. At the moment I have reduced the list of the 32 teams in the league to only 4 teams : Columbus Blue Jackets Ottawa Senators Nashville Predators Anaheim Ducks Now the question is how will I manage to stay with only one team, out of these 4 teams, that will become my favorite team? It's not an easy choice, but it's really fun and in the meantime I'm also enjoying the journey (:
im an avs/bruins fan. my brother got me into hockey when i was a kid we'd always watch the avs so i still always cheer them on. im irish however so i cant ever say anything bad about the bruins. just a shame that their games are always scheduled at the same exact time lol. but lately i also been watching blackhawks, because im very impressed by connor bedard and want to see where his career goes.
Yeah, no. You dont get to choose, thats not how sports works. Your team is your nearest one geographically. Otherwise you are a filthy bandwagoning casual. Period
As a San Jose fan, I'm quite hyped actually. Yes this year we will most likely funny bottom 5, but I am optimistic that we've seen the worst so far despite everyone thinking it will be worse. Also the prospect pool is actually underrated, and depending how development goes, I can see a world where in 3 years we could start challenging for a playoff spot again maybe. But regardless, I'm hyped for this year as we have a lot of new faces, several players that are trying to get a fresh start in a new organization and who knows what they could bring, and what Grier will cook for us this year!
I wouldn't be surprised if they regressed a little more this season, but I see what you mean regarding the worst being over. The organization has learned from its past and is willing to rip off the band aid to build a stable future. I look at '25-26 and by then, we could have Will Smith and Musty playing, we could have had another top-3 pick, hopefully Eklund budding into a young star. We still need another franchise cornerstone on defense and a legit goaltender (like the Red Wings have with Cossa and the Wild with Wallstedt), but I understand these things take time. Go Sharks Go!
@@TwistedWristerHockey we will rely a lot less on our past 2 stars (Meier and Karlsson) which mean that yes our celling is less high, but I think overall the team is more well rounded with depth, both aging and younger. And we don't know what Blackwood will bring in term of goaltending. I think the team will play also a lot more defensively.. especially with that D core that we have. And in all of that, you have a lot of the players that want to prove themselves and want to bounce back which means motivation will be probably high. I can see us getting maybe 25/26 wins. Hopefully not too much if we want Celebrini or Eiserman or a top D-man
@@metsuniehow are those 25 wins going for you? Im a fan of the ducks and sabres i know I gonna join you in the basement of torment that is the standings
@@Mega-rw8mt we dont talk about those LOL Altho to my defence, without Couture and Barabanov it's really hard to achieve anything Also the Ducks are a legit team this year, I wouldnt doubt them personally. It wouldnt surprise me if they at least finish about Seattle and Calgary.. Edmonton has to pick it up at some points
Although not in the NHL. The Portland Winterhawks are my favorite team. I've been a fan since I was 9 years old, and they introduced me to the sport. Which is ironically why I find it hard to settle on an NHL team. I mean, I did root for Chicago when I was a kid too, and LA recently. But nothing seems to stick. Maybe one day I'll find my pro team.
i’m a die hard Raiders fan.. i feel like hockey has that culture naturally, but who most closely resembles that team identity in the NHL ? also i’m from Atlanta, isn’t there an expansion coming soon & are cities confirmed yet
my favorite uniforms are Sharks & Ducks throwback jerseys, Blackhawks have some nice jerseys too. Coyotes colorway is nice, but i don’t know anything about the organization, i wanna root for more than favorite jerseys

As a Latvian guy, I always root for NHL teams where Latvians are playing. So Go Canucks, Go Panthers, and Go Sabres!
From what I've seen, you Latvians have plenty of passionate fans! You know who was one tough Latvian? Raitis Ivanāns.
@@TwistedWristerHockey yup, Latvia is one of three countries in the world (along with Canada and Finland) where Hockey is the most popular/watched sport. We also got a medal in this years IIHF championship for the first time in history. And yeah, Raitis was a great player 💪

Thanks for the shout out. Thoroughly enjoyed this video.
Thanks for featuring me nick
Thank you for being a voice for the fans! 👏
I love Vilardi! Every time he had the puck last year, I felt he might score. Just for blessed sake, stay healthy!
Regardless of who everyone else around me is a fan of, I chose the Blackhawks. And now I'm a diehard fan. I went my own way and love it!
Highs and lows, no matter what!😎
This is great!! I am in the process of trying to choose my team! But I do live in England 🏴
The Winter Classic is at T-mobile Park the baseball stadium
Oh crikey, you're right! 😅
You convinced me to check out Montreal Canadiens
You know what team go for twisted you're a beauty. Let's go blues!
Let's go Bruins!!!
My second team is Winnipeg. Connor Hellebuyck went to the same college as me. The guy is a UMass Lowell legend.
I like 14 teams 7 in east and 7 in west top 4 in east are Panthers, Bruins, Lightning, leafs. Bottom 3 in n east caps Carolina and devils. Top 4 in west Avalanche, Stars, Kings Vegas. Bottom 3 west Ducks, Blackhaws, Coyotes.

I’m rooting for the Kraken to get the big silver cup for Jordan Eberle. This is the year to get it done.🎉
I live in Québec so by birthright I am obligated to worship the Montreal Canadians
I have really enjoyed the hurricanes, they have a unique play style that doesn't count on individual players and they are not frequently talked about.
The only other team I pay attention to is the kraken.
Both teams I have lived close to.
I'm planning to go to PNC Arena for the first time in about six weeks - can't wait!
Still trying to pick my team! Go team hockey!
Can you have an eastern and western conference team?
Totally! I have my absolute favorite team that will never change, but I have two Eastern teams that I follow extensively. It's also fun to have a backup team if your main team is going through a lengthy playoff drought.
I've just gotten into hockey in the last week or so. I picked Seattle Kraken to be my team and I am so happy with my choice. I love the energy of the team.
Debating Penguins or Oilers I NEED THE FEEDBACK OF THE PEOPLE
You should personally cheer for the Boston Bruins, this year they broke a record, made it to the playoffs. And played great, with 6 Stanley Cup wins. Boston plays great every year. And I’m from Springfield, MA, that’s why you should root for the Bruins!
No your a bandwagon if your not from Massachusetts like you are
It's a shame Carter Hart is done with the Flyers because of his lawsuit. He was a great guy
washington commanders/wizards fan, but i'm from indiana. thinking about choosing the capitals because of the whole washington thing, but love the avalanche and their branding. very conflicted. which one has a better future outlook?
avalanche have better future. Wizards have a very old core currently.
I'm a saints fan in Football . My favorite hockey 🏒 team is Seattle Kraken .

Im a diehard rangers fan but I'd be lying if I said I didn't likw the blue jackets solely for the cannon

A team was easy choice cuz I’m from Tennessee, so Preds it is
NHL players are so cute 🥰 but I am a blackhawks fan so I'll choose Chicago Blackhawks.
Can you maybe do a video on what nfl team you should root for
Oh man, I'm nowhere near as clued into today's NFL as I am the NHL 😅 And at this point, I'll probably tune out the NFL with my Vikings being 0-2 already lol.

Just watched avalanche im really liking them
my 3 teams in this order.. Knights, Aves, blackhawks. Always been a fan of each been a longer fan of the hawks cause they we my first hockey team I liked and the knights have not come to vegas yet. If i had a 4th it is the Jets. Did these comments come from your discord?

i just want another sport to watch. i only watch the nfl and it gets slow sometimes. i know nothing about hockey but am thinking about getting into watching it because i seems very entertaining. basketball seems like just an hour of squeaking, soccer is so boring i cant lie and baseball seems cool but slow.
My top 3 teams:
1) Detroit Red Wings
2) Minnesota Wild
3) Seattle Kraken
19:16 Hahaha. Hahaha. Hahaha. Hahaha.

Win Burnzie a Cup!
🍁🥅Leafs🍁Forever🥅🍁
Go Avs go
Anaheim ducks
Washington capitals
Vegas Golden Knights
Seattle krakens
I’m giving hockey a shot after hearing that the NHL is banning pride tape. Which team goes the least out of its way to pander to “pride”? That’ll be the one I’ll root for.
Then you'll be sad to learn that Pride tape is now acceptable. No one is pandering to anything. You have to ask yourself why Putin will let the Russian players wear camouflage and honor the American military but he and they are afraid of us queers.
Did you have a traumatic experience with a rainbow as a child?
It's really weird to care at all about the color of a player's tape. It doesn't affect you at all. Why the hate?
I’m going to NYC from Bristol, UK, on Feb 5th-12th next month. Got a ticket for Rangers v Lightning so Rangers have got to be my team🪄My mum is a Glasgow Rangers fan too in footy so it only makes sense
Y’all should root for the rangers🫡
🤢
Yuck
The Islanders, duh. What other team is there to cheer for??
just watched my first nhl game
Krakens vs La Kings and its always good to have your team win the game when its your first time watching lol.
My favorite teams are the Flyers (been watching them since the early 90s, always fun to watch, even when they suck).
My second team is the Nashville Predators, they're a very up and down team but they are always a contender in their division and they've been fun to watch build throughout the years especially because I've been able to watch them from day 1 of them being an NHL team.
And lastly, Anaheim, largely in honor of my late best friend who absolutely loved the Ducks back in their Mighty Ducks era.
Honestly, there is no wrong team to cheer for in the NHL, hockey is a fantastic sport and more people should be watching it!!!
being from Florida, hockey was never on my radar growing up. I recently started following hockey out of curiosity and have found the sport fascinating to watch. The Lightning are my team since I’m from the Tampa area.
New fans would find The Seattle Kraken a fun team to support. 4 lines of chemistry and deep scoring. No true superstars, but Matty Beniers and Jarrod McCann could be those players. Goaltending may be an issue but Grubauer and Daccord may surprise the league. Fun games to watch and a competative division will make for late season drama.
Ahem
@@Cilvathorne Um...
My teams:
1) Avs - I lived in CO for 10 years (Miss you Cody McLeod)
2) Ducks - I live in Tulsa now and their ECHL team (the Oilers) affiliates up to the Ducks
3) Kraken - Who doesn't love t hose jerseys??
I haven’t watched NHL in years. Also I currently don’t have a favorite team. I want to get back into NHL but, I am not sure what team to have as my favorite. I won’t pay for NHL channel , network, or any games that I need to pay to watch. So what team should I be a fan of that has a lot of games that get put on TV nationally, and are fun to watch ?
anyone who picked the coyotes is definitely regretting that pick 😂
me 😔
Got in to hockey last year picked the coyotes as my favorite team then they moved to Utah
I just started watching this season so i am not sure who to go for but i am having fun right now. Its fun watching the games
I'm a new NHL fan and I think I'll just pick my team based on my gut feeling and natural attraction to a certain team. At the moment I have reduced the list of the 32 teams in the league to only 4 teams :
Columbus Blue Jackets
Ottawa Senators
Nashville Predators
Anaheim Ducks
Now the question is how will I manage to stay with only one team, out of these 4 teams, that will become my favorite team?
It's not an easy choice, but it's really fun and in the meantime I'm also enjoying the journey (:
im an avs/bruins fan. my brother got me into hockey when i was a kid we'd always watch the avs so i still always cheer them on. im irish however so i cant ever say anything bad about the bruins. just a shame that their games are always scheduled at the same exact time lol. but lately i also been watching blackhawks, because im very impressed by connor bedard and want to see where his career goes.
Yeah, no. You dont get to choose, thats not how sports works. Your team is your nearest one geographically. Otherwise you are a filthy bandwagoning casual. Period
As a San Jose fan, I'm quite hyped actually. Yes this year we will most likely funny bottom 5, but I am optimistic that we've seen the worst so far despite everyone thinking it will be worse. Also the prospect pool is actually underrated, and depending how development goes, I can see a world where in 3 years we could start challenging for a playoff spot again maybe.
But regardless, I'm hyped for this year as we have a lot of new faces, several players that are trying to get a fresh start in a new organization and who knows what they could bring, and what Grier will cook for us this year!
I wouldn't be surprised if they regressed a little more this season, but I see what you mean regarding the worst being over. The organization has learned from its past and is willing to rip off the band aid to build a stable future. I look at '25-26 and by then, we could have Will Smith and Musty playing, we could have had another top-3 pick, hopefully Eklund budding into a young star. We still need another franchise cornerstone on defense and a legit goaltender (like the Red Wings have with Cossa and the Wild with Wallstedt), but I understand these things take time. Go Sharks Go!
@@TwistedWristerHockey we will rely a lot less on our past 2 stars (Meier and Karlsson) which mean that yes our celling is less high, but I think overall the team is more well rounded with depth, both aging and younger. And we don't know what Blackwood will bring in term of goaltending. I think the team will play also a lot more defensively.. especially with that D core that we have. And in all of that, you have a lot of the players that want to prove themselves and want to bounce back which means motivation will be probably high. I can see us getting maybe 25/26 wins. Hopefully not too much if we want Celebrini or Eiserman or a top D-man
@@metsuniehow are those 25 wins going for you?
Im a fan of the ducks and sabres i know I gonna join you in the basement of torment that is the standings
@@Mega-rw8mt we dont talk about those LOL Altho to my defence, without Couture and Barabanov it's really hard to achieve anything
Also the Ducks are a legit team this year, I wouldnt doubt them personally. It wouldnt surprise me if they at least finish about Seattle and Calgary.. Edmonton has to pick it up at some points
The three of us are all Metro Division rivals. Joe - Caps, Cory - Flyers, Justin - Devs
Then there's me choosing the bruins because I like the jersey
Although not in the NHL. The Portland Winterhawks are my favorite team. I've been a fan since I was 9 years old, and they introduced me to the sport. Which is ironically why I find it hard to settle on an NHL team. I mean, I did root for Chicago when I was a kid too, and LA recently. But nothing seems to stick. Maybe one day I'll find my pro team.
That is amazing! Always love to hear people love their local AHL team if they have them.
@@DerelictNacho whl.
As totally not a actual human a bear ty for good comments
Wait - you guys got to pick the team you cheer for?
Hi
Ciao
Im an Australian and im so split between teams 😅
Go Stars.
i’m a die hard Raiders fan.. i feel like hockey has that culture naturally, but who most closely resembles that team identity in the NHL ? also i’m from Atlanta, isn’t there an expansion coming soon & are cities confirmed yet
my favorite uniforms are Sharks & Ducks throwback jerseys, Blackhawks have some nice jerseys too. Coyotes colorway is nice, but i don’t know anything about the organization, i wanna root for more than favorite jerseys
I hope Atlanta gets a team soon, because a new team in Canada in a couple of years would be great. Either Hamilton, Ontario or Quebec City is fine.
Yeah the jets are doing sooo bad this season
Red Wings, always!
