Oregon Is Faster
Which city has the most devoted fans to hockey?
not even Boston, Pittsburgh or Buffalo?
there is hope though, from a ratings perspective and my day to day life, i can feel hockey growing
the probably NBA lockout, and possible NFL lockout, in the same season, would only help
IMO hockey is the best and most exciting sport to watch.. given the chance today, i dont think fans would ever turn away from it
City? Well no one lives in Detroit, but the whole state of Michigan is quite devoted to their Wings. We're called Hockeytown for a reason.
is there any city within the US that even is close to the passion Montreal or Toronto have?
Agreed. the impending lockouts will really boost NHL and hockey as a whole. Especially with the Olympic games a few years ago, and the exciting playoffs that was just covered it sets up nicely for hockey to make a big splash this upcoming season. It is a very exciting sport to watch and I feel like it is the only pro sport that resembles the pageantry and passion of college sports. And all of the off the ice drama that is created is fun to follow and makes the games even more exciting because it is such a physical game.
Yep. Marketing people.

exactly.. and i think the country is tired of the selfish athletes that populate the NBA and NFL.. all they care about is money and their own stats and popularity.. obviously there's a few exceptions, but for the most part they are thugs that want all the money and individual glory they can get
