Vancouver was really only 1 gimmick away from being a legit hockey city. Well I showed you some tits, so humor me and read my take on the best hockey cities.
My top 10 Hockey Cities List:
1. Detroit- Obviously. Dynasty. Arguably the best franchise in the history of sports. No further explanation needed.
2. Montreal- Original 6 teams are gonna get it over any po-dunk-wanna-be when it comes to a true classic hockey city, so stick with me here.
3. Toronto- Hockey Hall of Fame lives here. Strip clubs and Labbat Blue out of the faucet; enough to make any hockey player moist.
4. Boston- BC an BU hockey programs give Bean town the slight edge over NYC.
5. New York- If only black people weren't afraid of water(albeit frozen) and the Islanders were relevant.
6. Chicago- I wish I could have Chi city higher in this list, but lets be honest; After Roenick and Ed Belfour left in the early 90s, hockey fell off. Nobody even gave a shit until like 3 years ago. Squeaking out a cup helps, but there is no youth league hockey presence in Illinois. Half the state thinks they are east coast snobs and the rest think they're southern hicks. Hardly a hockey atmosphere.
7. Vancouver- This playoff run is really up-ing their cred. Gimmicks, whore fans, and British Columbian dank head hockey bums(similar to a Cali beach bum) are forcing the media to cover this team night in and night out. If only any one on the team had an inkling of personality, the NHL would pimp them hard.
8. Minneapolis- The Golden Gophers storied hockey program and the slow development of the Wild into the franchise that the North Stars once were might save them from dropping out of the top 10.
9. Buffalo- They really have nothing else except hockey. America's armpit needs some type of recognition and they put their heart and soul into the Sabres. Too bad the ownership doesn't.
10. Tampa Bay- With Stevie Y taking the reigns, and basically warming up to be the Red Wings GM when Kenny Holland calls it quits, I could see some great things come from this team. Not far removed from a 2004 Stanley Cup victory, they are really appealing to anyone who moved down to Florida from an aforementioned great hockey city. They wouldn't be my #1 team by any means, but a viable option to follow and enjoy. Too bad they are in such a shitty market. Lets see how far Grandpa's pension checks and Social Security benefits can go in contributing to an NHL franchise's net worth.
