Great video, good advice. I'm a NHL newbie watching in the UK. I chose to follow the Ottawa Senators, they aren't an old team, but they're not new either, since thier new franchise in '92. I like their players and their fans seem down to earth not arrogant like fans on the other side of Ontario. Maybe this season will finally be the one for them. Go Sens Go. 😊

Great video. I was told by a hockey fan to pick ONE team, follow that ONE team, get to know that ONE team. OK? So next, I wanted that team to be one with history and traditions. So I knew I wanted an original six. Next, I live in the EST . So because I have satellite radio and access to their live games, I wanted someone who was also on the East Coast. After that, I wanted to be able to EASILY follow the news about my team. I wanted to be able to switch ESPN and my team would be the topic of conversation. Well, that only left one team... The New York Rangers. I made that choice in 2016,and I've lived every minute of it. I probably catch 40 to 50 games a season. Tho I live in Cincinnati. Haven't caught a live game yet.

Still don't know who to root for though. I live in the Rocky Mountain area but don't like Denver/Colorado teams, prefer a team not with a ton of winning history but more a super passionate fan base that's supportive and sells out frequently. As you can see my logo is the Big 12 conference for football because they're super passionate and underrated and I love it. I don't really like rooting for huge market teams but my favorite series to listen to was the Penguins Rangers first round one. Any suggestions or ideas? Also don't like Vegas at all so 😂 no LA no Anaheim don't like Arizona, big markets and Florida teams are a no too

The Rangers are a really fun team to watch right now, so I’m sure you’re happy 👍! I’m not sure how far they can go in the playoffs since they struggle to score at 5v5, but a hot run in the postseason can change that!

Agreed, there’s people that get mad if you don’t like the team of where you’re from, but the whole point of watching a sport is to be entertained. Personally I grew up in a state that doesn’t have a team, which definitely helped me deal with less crazy fans 😅.
Im brazillian and new to hockey. Only 1 year of watching games. I like the canucks because i saw them in the "how i met your mother" tv show, it was the team of robin scherbatsky. I google them and they have no stanley, but 3 finals.

My other favorite teams are the Brewers, Bulls, and Bears.

I will say if you’re hoping to watch a team that will still be a good in a few years, then Colorado’s probably the way to go. Pittsburgh’s had a lot of success, but have a lot of veterans set to retire in the coming years. Either way though, go with the pick that feels right 👍!

Okay huge football fan and liked basketball but it's getting really soft and political and just not what it was. I watched and listened to the whole playoffs this year and it was awesome! Still don't know who to root for though. I live in the Rocky Mountain area but don't like Denver/Colorado teams, prefer a team not with a ton of winning history but more a super passionate fan base that's supportive and sells out frequently. As you can see my logo is the Big 12 conference for football because they're super passionate and underrated and I love it. I don't really like rooting for huge market teams but my favorite series to listen to was the Penguins Rangers first round one. Any suggestions or ideas? Also don't like Vegas at all so 😂 no LA no Anaheim don't like Arizona, big markets and Florida teams are a no too

There’s a lot of teams you could go with. I’d probably suggest going with an older team, or bigger hockey market since the fans tend to be more supportive. Canadian teams usually hold that standard, but there’s a lot of great American markets that hold true to this too.
