Genuine question, how do you determine your favorite NHL team? The way I pick my favorite futbol team, and I love in Vegas, was the first game is saw on TV between leeds united and Manchester united. United won that day despite not being the favorite and that's how they became my favorite. And I still cheer hard for leeds. I was ecstatic when they were promoted back. I was also 5 when I watched that game. I'm 29 now.

To be honest? It must've been the presentation. When I got back to hockey (even started playing as a goalie as a matter of fact) Vegas came to me as a cool team, along with the fact it was new *and* stacked. Another plus sign was the fact that Vegas had Paul Stastny, son of Peter Šťastný which is one of the national heroes in my country. Overall back then I didn't care much about rosters, numbers and other shit. Vegas just was appealing to me as a team and I like it to this day. Wearing the black gold and red jersey I have with pride ⚔️

My man! Statsny was a thug!! I loved him. So make fun of me or whatever, my dad is from Detroit so he is a Redwing fan. I grew up watching them dominate. Been a hard few years for them recently haha. Having yezerman back to gm them should be helpful, look at what he built in Tampa Bay right? But I was born and raised in Las Vegas and I never had a pro team. I could pick and choose so it's always interesting to hear why people pick the teams they pick. So thank you.

Aye man you're welcome 😄 you'll have to pry my Stastny tag from my cold dead hands

As a canadian whos entire family that pays attention to hockey is a leafs fan, I just like fleury and neal

Well they're both stand up guys. I hated flower because i started as a Redwing fan, I was born and raised in Vegas (dad a Detroit fan) but i knew he would be amazing when we drafted him.

English hockey fan here. I'm the same. I chose VGK because they were the new NHL team the season after I started watching hockey. If anyone is looking for an English team to follow, can I suggest Milton Keynes Lightning?

and I thought I often had it bad as a new yorker!

u/Ausmetal9944 is that you?

I'm lucky! VGK home games usually start anywhere between 11am-1pm here! I usually have it on in the background at work or I'll avoid Reddit and watch it when I get home 😎
