Why should someone else decide what team you should cheer for?

Well I am not gonna tell you to cheer or watch them but I will suggest Leafs or Flames

If you are really searching for a team to cheer for. Take a team with some great prospects that will be on there way up soon

Ottawa, LA, etc

Honestly, just look up the jerseys/logos for the NHL teams and find 8-10 that you like. Start watching games of those teams and whichever team you enjoy the most, go with them.

Welcome to NHL fandom!

If you can hold off for a bit, why not Seattle?

I started following hockey when the Ducks came into the league. I feel very fortunate to have seen some amazing players play for them, have had the major downs during the multiple thrashings that occurred by way of the Red Wings dynasty during a handful of sad playoff finishes, the happiness of seeing them take New Jersey to 7 games in the finals, followed by the heartbreak of that moment, then to see Scotty Niedermeyer join his brother Rob in Anaheim, the major theft of Chris Pronger, and finally a Cup championship. Things don't look great today, but to have been able to follow since day 1 was a lot of fun.

I'm new so I don't really know much about any teams or fanbases. If I knew a team I wouldn't be asking.

All signs point to the team Tom Wilson is on. Just the greatest thing to come to hockey since ice.

Very true. Charlie Conway is portrayed as a true leader, but Banksy was a stud. Ooozing with talent. Quiet and collected. Basically Peewee hockey's version of Jonathan Toews tears of joy

Not just saying this cuz I'm a leafs fan but they're probably your best option. They have such a passionate fan base and they're the center of the hockey universe. They also have one of the most exciting and explosive offenses in the league with all their young and talented players. They have a bright future and lots of hope going forward

Nashville. They're an underdog team going into the playoffs. We have the best, die hard fans in sports, imo and they always give back to the community as most other teams do
