Devils don't have attendance issues and don't need to be moved like those other teams.

Yeah, the Devils have been bottom 5 in attendance for almost a decade. Pretty poor attendance. Should probably look into relocation. Maybe Hartford or Saskatchewan?

Wow, I didn't expect that. I thought it would have been mostly Jets. Maybe a team in East Canada could be cool. Not sure if they would have a sustainable fanbase

There are a lot of jets fans, but I mean, Alberta is equally close so I guess with Wayne Gretzky, and the fact the jets weren't a team from 1996-2011 made them a more popular team?

And I guess the leafs fans are because of the fact that none of the west teams were there in the original 6 (most of the leafs fans are older. I'm a leafs fan because My dad is from Ontario and I also used to live there).

Ya, Quebec city team would be nice. I feel like there would be fans.

Devils attendance isn't as bad as other teams and the NHL won't move teams that have won a Stanley Cup

Plenty of teams that have won Cups have almost moved. The Devils aren't immune because they were good two decades ago. Continued poor attendance issues should garner relocation discussion regarding the Devils. Hope for your sake they get it figured out though. Maybe get yourself to season tickets to help.

Oh that would work. Well, PEI wouldn't work but Halifax could.

By the way, are people in New Jersey all devils fans? Or are there many people of a different fanbase?

Depends where you live. Mix of Devils, Rangers, Islanders, Flyers, and more. South NJ is all Flyers. North is mostly Devils.

Sorry I misread it. You said "almost" moved. But Devils aren't getting moved. They won 3 Cups, have been mostly consistent, big fanbase compared to their small market.

Interesting. After checking maps (my new jersey geography isn't very good) that does make sense as Philadelphia is closer.

The original Senators... but that's it as far as I know (in the nhl at least).

Yeah, rivalry games are very fun between Devils/Flyers, Devils/Islanders, and Devils/Rangers.

Panthers to Saskatchewan!!! All jokes aside Hartford return would be nice.

I agree.

Actually can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not...

The Buffalo market, (not Hamilton, not Ft. Erie), are top 3 in playoff viewership for the last 15 years, our team has been in 4 playoffs over that time, with 2 1st round knockouts

If you want to argue that way, the leafs would have the top viewership despite no cups since 67...

They don't? I just figured since essentially the whole country watches them on Saturday they would.

Sure, then you can move NYI, CAR , OTT and CBJ too.

Come to think of it, DAL and COL have also had some issues with attendance in the past, they probably should have been moved.

STL and CHI used to be really bad too, probably should have thought about moving them.

Ya move the isles as theyre building a brand new arena. 👍
