@Chisox100 I don't think you need to move the Canes.... NC only has a Football team and a Basketball team besides that. And well, neither the Panthers or the Bobcats are good so at least leave 1 decent team there!
@TheLaughableLovable don't let this video fool you. This idiot moved the teams that has won a cup recently just because his team never won one. It's all bias, no facts whatsoever!!! He needs to get his map correctly
@chisox100 What about Anaheim, Raleigh, and Tampa? Have you ever been to those cities? BTW I never mentioned Phoenix, the Yotes will be the next team to move if they don't find a suitable owner.
@chisox100 You can't just move all teams to the North or else this sport will never grow. Moving teams to bigger markets won't increase the attendance. I guarantee you on that.
Some people here should to check the team's location first before they consider them for relocation...
-Anaheim is NOT in LA county, it's in ORANGE COUNTY which is 30 miles away.
-There are 2 teams in NYC, not 3. Sabres play in Buffalo, it's in Upstate NY near Niagra Falls. Buffalo is in the Buffalo-Niagra Falls metropolitan area. Islanders play on Long Island and Rangers play in Manhattan.
-Lightning are not going anywhere, why would you move a team that was just one win shy away from the Stanley Cup Finals last year? Didn't they just break ground on building renovation project for St. Pete Forum? And if you look at their attendance, you would be surprised.
-Panthers aren't going anywhere either. They have a lease until 2030, it would be difficult for them to walk out of it.
-The only team that will relocate will be the Coyotes.
I'd move tampa to Quebec city, pheonix to seattle and not call then the sasquatches (call them the supersonics and trick the basketball fans) keep anahiem cause now you have a tripple rivalry b/t seattle, vancouver and anahiem, move the preds to Hartford, and move columbus in 2030 to Milwaukee and call them the mini packers
Rivalries aren't created by teams being nearby. Furthermore, assuming such a rivalry will be created is no reason to move a team. Atlanta had a huge rivalry with Tampa Bay, but those cities aren't anywhere near each other. Furthermore, Montreal is extremely close to Ottawa but has no outstanding rivalry with the Sens.
Also, in reference to "hockey isn't meant to be played in the south," what do you say about the Preds, then? They have an excellent, successful franchise there. In Tennessee
I like how in the video you never relocated Nashville but then at the end we still weren't on the map. Nashville is becoming a hockey market and it pisses Canadians off and I love it ;) Go Preds!
@volainge09 it doesn't piss Canadians off that Nashville is becoming a hockey market. Im from Winnipeg, and I would be pissed to see Smashville relocated. trust me I am surrounded by Canadians i cant do anything about it and i have heard Canadians bitch about many southern US teams being in the NHL due to lack of interest and empty seats but I have never heard anyone bash Nashville for having a team. if so Barry Trotz would fly up and kicks some canadian ass.
@DirtyolBrizz Completely agreed and good to hear haha. We got a lot going for us as a franchise right now and it's good to hear that at least some people up north are taking notice. But you have to imagine how many negative comments I get on my videos from Canadians talking about how we should have never gotten a franchise. We don't feel superior to any team, we just want to be recognized as a competitive and steady franchise with a good home in Nashville. So thanks for noticing lol
@volainge09 Doesn't piss me off. I've always thought that Nashville has potential in TN. Good to see that they're attendance is up. If Phoenix started doing well, THAT would piss me off.
@fore3113 There's something in the works for the Coliseum right now, but if it doesn't pan out (it will work out), Brooklyn, Queens and Suffolk County are all options before Quebec.
Interesting list - weird how you suggested the hartford franchise which moved to carolina would merge into quebec whos former franchise history resides in colorado - you almost nailed it since thats likely where the Islanders or Coyotes will end up in the next 5 years. You do make some valid points but also forget that existing arena sizes and luxury suites, as well as business HQ setups factor in as well. If PHX moved back to scottsdale or Mesa they'd double attendance.
wtf! winnipeg aint the only canadien team. put a team in halifax but call it the maritme _____, then they whould have attendence and support from all the maritimes. and put a team in saskaton.
wheres the blues theyll always stay just beacuse they havent won a cup means nothing there a team they have passion for eachother even the chicago blackhawks would agree they would try to help keep st.louis blues where there at real hockey fans would help the blues GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BLUES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
of course.. coyotes move.. keep them here.. ive been going since i was born.. well a little after i was born.. but im a bruins fan so haha im not gonna take a vacation every week just to see the bruins win
Indianapolis has 2 pro teams. The Indianapolis Colts and Indiana Pacers. It's not exactly a large city nor do we want a hockey team here nor will we ever get one. We're fine with the NFL and NBA only. So try doing some marketing research you damn fool before picking random cities and making up false information. Just because one team has good attendance in that city in a certain league doesn't mean the same for another. Especially the NHL which is one of the least popular leagues in America.
@chisox100 That's my point! Look what you're comparing it to. The NHL is no where near as popular as the major leagues in America that really matter like the NFL, NBA, and MLB. Hockey is not an American sport so therefore most of the country doesn't really care. More teams need to move North of the Border. That's where the money is made to keep that league operating or they need to contract teams.
@martiaco Hockey has became a pretty popular American sport, more people are into it than into a baseball game or a basketball game. I've been to alot of Angels baseball games, Lakers basketball games and Kings hockey games and by far the Kings have a better fan base. Angels and Dodgers fans talk during the whole game about stuff not even related to baseball, Lakers fans are always getting out of their seat to do things other than watch the game but Kings fans are committed to the sport
@ChachaChapati very tepid. people in Anaheim only give a shit about the ducks when they are in the playoffs. try going to honda center during regular season. the place is totally empty. and when the kings play there, we outnumber their fans at least 3 to 1. It was a lot more crowded during the disney era. i went to a few games even when the kings were not playing, and the place was always crowded. Then again, they were disney on ice back then, hence why. That's Orange county for you.
@PLERKTA I went to a Wings game at the Honda two years back and the place was a sea of red. By the third period the lone Ducks fan in my section had walked out. Pathetic.
@whirleypop sounds like em. at least us kings fans don't take shit from other fans who try to take over our stadium and outshout us. i saw some canucks fans climbing onto the Wayne Gretzky statue on the new years eve game to take a picture. Bunch of kings fans rushed over and told them to go away, and they obeyed. Ducks fans do not have balls like that.
@martiaco Yea most people dont like sports that dont involve black people chasing balls that look like watermelon run from the other black people to keep it for himself.
for the last 8 years the lightning have had a better attendance then the florida panthers not to mention the lightning were number 2 in attendance the season after they won the cup and number 3 the year after. Look up your facts before you pull it out of your ass you dumbass.
@deftonesrule311 every teams attendance goes up after a cup, but as of late Tampa and Florida have had similar attendance yet Tampa has had more success so i beleive that shows Florida has better fans
@chisox100 during the years when the lightning had that shitty ownership and they were losing these are the numbers in attendance: lightnings last place season in 07 - 08: total - 766,412 avg - 18,692 a game 8th in the league. Florida panthers: total - 632,881, avg - 15,436 a game 25th in the league. 08 - 09 Lightnings 2nd to last place season which also was the season where the panthers were a game from being in the playoffs: Lightning: total - 676,409 - 16,497 avg 21th in the league.
Respond to this video... Florida: total - 640,496 - 16,497 avg. 25th in the league. these numbers were close but florida should have had the better attendance having that they have almost mad the playoffs that year. The year after that was about the same numbers with the lightning being near last place again and florida not making the playoffs but having a better record than tampa. The year after that tampa became successful having better attendance they climbed 18th in the league
Respond to this video... while florida remained the same attendance number. and as for this year. Florida has played 3 home games with a total of 33,163 avg 11, 054 a game 28th in the league. while the lightning played the same amount of games drawing in 56,589, avg 18,863 a game 8th in the league but, i dont think the ranks matter because this is also comparing them to teams that have played 5,4,3, or 2 home games already.
Respond to this video... and i can understand why u would be biased to florida rather than tampa being a blackhawks fan and a fan of David Tallon and probably being a red wing hater and being against Steve Yzerman.
@deftonesrule311 Ok so my dad has a friend who has season tickets to lightning games and he says that the damn arena is pretty much a ghost town, so you get your facts straight before you pull them out of your ass you dumbass
Atlanta is a great city, and in the top 5 fastest growing cities in the country. If that's your idea of a shitty city, you've clearly never been to Detroit or Toledo before.
I say keep phoenix actually cuz attendance picked up a lil bit last yr. And phoenix is unique. Cold weather sport in arizona comon now gotta love it. And if they kepp makin the playoffs attendance will get better again this yr. But yea not tampa move the panthers.
I definitely was for Atlanta moving; no one cares about the NHL there, sadly. KC or Seattle will be the next choice for a team and FLA would be the next team to go. Ducks and Kings have good fan-bases in the 2nd biggest media market in the U.S., so no.
Anaheim Ducks move? 2nd to the LA Queens? FUCK U BRO THE DUCKS WILL AND ALWAYS BE THE FIRST WEST COAST STANLEY CUP CHAMPS AND THEY R STAYIN. ONCE THE LA QUEENS WIN A CUP THEN MAYBE THEY'LL BE A GOOD TEAM. PS FUCK U
@LightningNHL Tampa also has the CHEAPEST TICKETS in the league good sir, which would probably explain their excellent attendance.
P.S. Just watched a Winnipeg preseason game... looks like you might also be an ass! It also looks like I will be watching a Quebec preseason game sometime soon (why else would they be building a $400M arena in Quebec City?)
@chishja YOUR so wrong dumbass, it cost about 50 dollars to sit in nose bleed seats and they still do great in attendance, and Atlanta is also building a multi million dollar stadium too! so building a stadium could mean anything, SO DONT GET YOUR HOPES UP, LIGHTNING WILL STAY! #DUMBASS
I disagree with your point about TB, but the others are legit points. Replace your point about TB with the Panthers (whom actually have crap-tastic attendance save for the month of December) and you may have a game here.
um anaheim sells out regularly and ducks kings is a great rivalry. seattle vancouver isnt gonna be a rivalry cuz vancouver rivals with detroit la sanjose and calgary as welll as edmonton. ur retarded
Milwaukee??? Never thought about that, but you're right. With the success of college hockey in that area, it's only fitting that they try an NHL team there.

Why Bolts? Flordia never wins, 1 cup appearnce(sweep i think) and bad attendance. Bolts do good sometimes, ECF contenders (BRUINS FTW_) 04 cup winners, competed with the caps
If your saying that one team in every province/state is enough, you might as well move either the Islanders or Rangers, Flames or Oilers, Maple Leafs or Senators, so on and so fourth. Plus locations and names would take months, if not a year or two to determine. If anything, move back to Hartford. They were, and still are a hockey-rich community. I agree with @LightningNHL. I'd rather have Gary Bettman deciding this than you.
I think that a lot of those ideas are good. and also the south is not made to play hockey. (P.S I like the idea of giving Quebec a hockey team, because they need one bad)
First of all, Tampa Bay gets good attendance and are the only successful team in Florida. The Panthers need to relocate. So does Anaheim and because the L.A. Kings fans hate the Ducks so much, and because the Ducks won the 2007 Stanley Cup and have a rabid fan base makes this relocation move utterly retarded. Carolina will be fine. And in terms of Phoenix, I'm fron there and they are close to finding an owner that WILL keep the team there. There are a lot of Coyotes fans in Phoenix, dumbass
@LightningNHL Actually your statistics are incorrect.
Tampa bay has been going down the tubes after the Cup win. The avg attendance is 10,576 with a record low of 6,387 last year during a critical game. Tampa bay has 22 thousand seats and if the avg is at 10k well im sorry sir you can clearly see they are below 50%.
Every team in Canada has %100+ attendance on avg other than the Sens who had 4 games at 97% attendance.
So care to argue the statistics off the Tampa Bay Lighting website?
@LightningNHL You may think Atlanta is nice if you've never been stuck in the god awful traffic or stuck outside when its 105 and humid....Go to a city like San Fransisco, Chicago or Seattle spend some time there and then tell me Atlanta is nice
@LightningNHL last i checked youtube lets me upload whatever the hell i want? and FYI Atlanta is the shittiest city ive ever had the displeasure of going to.
@chisox100 Dude, shut the fuck up, atlanta is one of the best cities in the world, there is so much stuff to do hear. maybe if you actually 'came' to atlanta instead of making shit up, you would see for yourself. hah. i hate arguing with people that are 10 years old, seriousely, are you even allowed to be on the computer?
thats gay as hell. i man what the hell?? the seattle sasquatch?? that sounds like a gay pussy ahl or jr team and tampa shouldnt move or cariliina!!!! your such a dumbass
THREE STANLET CUP WINNERS--Ducks, Hurricanes, and Lightning--on that list...
And no PANTHERS? Or PREDATORS? Or BLUE JACKETS?
Hands off my Ducks...playoff team, filled with iconic players--Perry, Getzlaf, Bobby Ryan, goalies named Hiller, Hebert, and Giguere, and oh yes, a certain duo by the names of Kariya and Selanne!--and LA has two baseball teams...
THEY do fine.
Move the Coyotes, Panthers, Preds...leave teams like the Ducks and Lightning alone!
First off if you watch the video they don't move the Preds but at the end of the video the Preds are not on the map. What is up with that. Second why move the Preds, they averaged almost 2,000 more fans than Anaheim did last season and sold out everyone of their home playoff games.
its really funny because for the ducks in 2007 and 2008 they has sell outs every night also they won a stanley cup the kings didnt so i think anaheim is ahead of the kings
I honestly think that Florida doesn't need 2 NHL teams. Is hockey even big down there? Idk about Pen or Phili but NY doesnt need 3 teams either. Calif has 3 okay teams but do they really need 3 NHL teams?
@BLOCK19PRODUCTIONS Ice hockey is big in Florida, Pensacola the city is big into hockey, the Lightning have a ton of fans. By the way for those people (not you BLOCK) Tampa Bay is not a City its a geographical area that encompasses 5-6 cities. The problem with most of our teams is the placement of them with in that geographical area. Some of us die hard fans cant afford the gas and fees to go through the suncoast to get to St. Petersburgh every night from Pasco.
@GrimmLupin Yeah i can imagine in Tampa after the 2003 Cup win. I bet your also huge baseball fans since the Rays always do well in the AL and it's always warm there for baseball. Hockey really grew up here in Chicago and football and baseball fans are starting to turn into full-time Hawk fans and no one really cares about basketball except the blacks. But hockey really grew after the expansion in the 90's and im happy to see it grow even more every year.
@BLOCK19PRODUCTIONS When i lived in Tampa i use to go to all the baseball games, granted baseball is 30 minutes closer to pasco then the Lightning or Buccaneers so it wasint a huge gas eating trip as well as not having to pay the toll to get on the suncoast :3 personally the only moving i want to see in Tampa with any of Tampas teams is make them more centrally located with in the Tampa Bay area instead of placing them on the extreme edges.
@GrimmLupin Yeah see, Chicago is convinient as far as geographical locations for our stadiums. The "Cell" (White Sox) Is right on the Dan Ryan expresswayin bound to downtown. Wrigley Field is on the Northside of Chicago for the Cubs. Soldier Field (Bears) Is downtown. And the best stadium of all The UC is 10 minutes outside of down town for the Hawks and Bulls. So pretty much all sports teams play very close to eachother.
Respond to this video... NHL teams also play some of there pre-season games in different cities who don't even have NHL teams in there state. It helps grow and promote the sport since hey, hockey is fuckin awesome and all other sports can't really compare in my opinion.
@chisox100 Only one who is an ass here are you. Just because ''''''the best country in the world'''''' Canada made this sport dosen't mean it s not ment to play in usa or in europe
@elvislv Don't be fooled by this tool who created this shitty video. The Samuelis family have never considered about relocating and reason why the Ducks had a poor attendance rate is because of the economy.
@chisox100 Maybe you should get your facts straight before you attack a team. You mentioned the teams that have won the cup recently, why? because your team didn't? Looks like I'm not the one who's an ass over here lol
Anihiem will stay becaue they stilll have a good fan base and tampa is starting to get a bigger fan base i think if a folrida team will move it will be the panthers coyoetes will probably go to quebec city
@kennylee446 technically it started over in europe as a game called colf that was really similar. Hockey formed from british troops that came over to canada. those are the facts.
are u mad because the majority of these teams won the cup recently and not ur favorite team? anaheim, carolina, tampa bay ... LA will always be second in California cause they never won the cup in 47 years... ducks won a cup i got in the cup final another time in only 18 years! Carolina, great city and great fans.. Tampa bay won't leave if the panthers dont move too.. and ur forgot to add new york islanders to ur list... learn about hockey before posting a video
@hunter2981 Great point... But I don't see the Islanders relocating somewhere else because they won 4 cups. Their owner is so desperate in building his dream in Nassau County, but my guess is they are going to have to build a new arena in Queens City. I don't think the Panthers are going to move at all even though they suck.
@kennylee446 well in both cases, they have an hard time solding their tickets cause there is another team close to them and more popular too. just like anaheim and LA but in that case, both of them are really established in their market. so instead of having 2 teams in new york and 2 teams in florida, they might move them in a place where hockey would be more popular. maybe in saskatchewan cause they have no sport teams except roughriders and this team is even more popular then the mtl canadiens
Texas is part of the south too technicley also how the hell would Quebec support another fancise when the Nordiques failed & if it happens again its not worth going back to like atlanta. Also what the hell does everyone have against the south and its money. I'm not on the south or north only side, but Jacksonville thrived with the Barracudas but no-one cares they just want north only teams. Plus some may only be able to afford minor league teams.
The reason why the Nordiques failed is simply because Canada lacked a strong dollar, much like Winnipeg's situation. Now the Jets have Thomson and his multi billion dollar pockets, as well the Canadian dollar is consistently around par; it'll take a lot of money and a big investor to do the same for Quebec city, buuut it is possible, just not going to happen any time soon.
wtf? You move the Lightning, the more successful of the 2 Florida teams, and leave the lowly Panthers? You move Anaheim and Carolina? I'm fine with Phoenix and Atlanta already moved, and move Florida, not TB. Also, Indy and Milwaukee will and should not get NHL teams, Seattle is fine.
@vinnylec254 I agree with this, you can't just relocate a bunch of teams, as you could tell with Atlanta going to Winnipeg it's a long process, you need to put the team up for sale, find a suitable buyer, then there needs to be a relocation process if needed. Hurricanes, Lightning, and Ducks stay. Maybe Phoenix will relocate someday and I think Florida will stay just because of new management, young players to help the team, and the fact that the team isn't for sale.
@SlimaJames I agree, and srry for the bluntness, i was having a bad day lol. Anaheim, Carolina and Tampa are established in their markets. That makes it tough, plus Florida will probably evenually move unless they can build a winner like their neigbours to the north. Phoenix is a gonner, and the Isles I think will stay in New York, Betman supports his NY teams.
Totaly agree with the song

It was a lot more crowded during the disney era. i went to a few games even when the kings were not playing, and the place was always crowded. Then again, they were disney on ice back then, hence why. That's Orange county for you.

@whirleypop sounds like em. at least us kings fans don't take shit from other fans who try to take over our stadium and outshout us. i saw some canucks fans climbing onto the Wayne Gretzky statue on the new years eve game to take a picture. Bunch of kings fans rushed over and told them to go away, and they obeyed. Ducks fans do not have balls like that.

@deftonesrule311 every teams attendance goes up after a cup, but as of late Tampa and Florida have had similar attendance yet Tampa has had more success so i beleive that shows Florida has better fans
chisox100 4 months ago
@chisox100 during the years when the lightning had that shitty ownership and they were losing these are the numbers in attendance: lightnings last place season in 07 - 08: total - 766,412 avg - 18,692 a game 8th in the league. Florida panthers: total - 632,881, avg - 15,436 a game 25th in the league. 08 - 09 Lightnings 2nd to last place season which also was the season where the panthers were a game from being in the playoffs: Lightning: total - 676,409 - 16,497 avg 21th in the league.
deftonesrule311 4 months ago
Respond to this video... Florida: total - 640,496 - 16,497 avg. 25th in the league. these numbers were close but florida should have had the better attendance having that they have almost mad the playoffs that year. The year after that was about the same numbers with the lightning being near last place again and florida not making the playoffs but having a better record than tampa. The year after that tampa became successful having better attendance they climbed 18th in the league
deftonesrule311 4 months ago
Respond to this video... while florida remained the same attendance number. and as for this year. Florida has played 3 home games with a total of 33,163 avg 11, 054 a game 28th in the league. while the lightning played the same amount of games drawing in 56,589, avg 18,863 a game 8th in the league but, i dont think the ranks matter because this is also comparing them to teams that have played 5,4,3, or 2 home games already.

If your saying that one team in every province/state is enough, you might as well move either the Islanders or Rangers, Flames or Oilers, Maple Leafs or Senators, so on and so fourth. Plus locations and names would take months, if not a year or two to determine. If anything, move back to Hartford. They were, and still are a hockey-rich community. I agree with @LightningNHL.

First of all, Tampa Bay gets good attendance and are the only successful team in Florida. The Panthers need to relocate. So does Anaheim and because the L.A. Kings fans hate the Ducks so much, and because the Ducks won the 2007 Stanley Cup and have a rabid fan base makes this relocation move utterly retarded. Carolina will be fine. And in terms of Phoenix, I'm fron there and they are close to finding an owner that WILL keep the team there. There are a lot of Coyotes fans in Phoenix, dumbass
amityville771 5 months ago
@LightningNHL Actually your statistics are incorrect.
Tampa bay has been going down the tubes after the Cup win. The avg attendance is 10,576 with a record low of 6,387 last year during a critical game. Tampa bay has 22 thousand seats and if the avg is at 10k well im sorry sir you can clearly see they are below 50%.
Every team in Canada has %100+ attendance on avg other than the Sens who had 4 games at 97% attendance.
So care to argue the statistics off the Tampa Bay Lighting website?

@BLOCK19PRODUCTIONS Ice hockey is big in Florida, Pensacola the city is big into hockey, the Lightning have a ton of fans.

The problem with most of our teams is the placement of them with in that geographical area. Some of us die hard fans cant afford the gas and fees to go through the suncoast to get to St. Petersburgh every night from Pasco.

@GrimmLupin Yeah i can imagine in Tampa after the 2003 Cup win. I bet your also huge baseball fans since the Rays always do well in the AL and it's always warm there for baseball. Hockey really grew up here in Chicago and football and baseball fans are starting to turn into full-time Hawk fans and no one really cares about basketball except the blacks. But hockey really grew after the expansion in the 90's and im happy to see it grow even more every year.
BLOCK19PRODUCTIONS 5 months ago
@BLOCK19PRODUCTIONS When i lived in Tampa i use to go to all the baseball games, granted baseball is 30 minutes closer to pasco then the Lightning or Buccaneers so it wasint a huge gas eating trip as well as not having to pay the toll to get on the suncoast :3 personally the only moving i want to see in Tampa with any of Tampas teams is make them more centrally located with in the Tampa Bay area instead of placing them on the extreme edges.
GrimmLupin 5 months ago
@GrimmLupin Yeah see, Chicago is convinient as far as geographical locations for our stadiums. The "Cell" (White Sox) Is right on the Dan Ryan expresswayin bound to downtown. Wrigley Field is on the Northside of Chicago for the Cubs. Soldier Field (Bears) Is downtown. And the best stadium of all The UC is 10 minutes outside of down town for the Hawks and Bulls. So pretty much all sports teams play very close to eachother.

I don't think the Panthers are going to move at all even though they suck.
kennylee446 6 months ago
@kennylee446 well in both cases, they have an hard time solding their tickets cause there is another team close to them and more popular too. just like anaheim and LA but in that case, both of them are really established in their market. so instead of having 2 teams in new york and 2 teams in florida, they might move them in a place where hockey would be more popular. maybe in saskatchewan cause they have no sport teams except roughriders and this team is even more popular then the mtl canadiens

The reason why the Nordiques failed is simply because Canada lacked a strong dollar, much like Winnipeg's situation.

@vinnylec254 I agree with this, you can't just relocate a bunch of teams, as you could tell with Atlanta going to Winnipeg it's a long process, you need to put the team up for sale, find a suitable buyer, then there needs to be a relocation process if needed. Hurricanes, Lightning, and Ducks stay. Maybe Phoenix will relocate someday and I think Florida will stay just because of new management, young players to help the team, and the fact that the team isn't for sale.

@SlimaJames I agree, and srry for the bluntness, i was having a bad day lol. Anaheim, Carolina and Tampa are established in their markets.
