need a bit of help here, I'm a fan of Cleveland sports team fan, but have always had a bit of an interest in hockey and it's sort of grown during the olympics. I'd really like to have a team to adopt and to follow. And before eveyone says "Adopt the Blue Jackets", something just doesn't feel right, I don't feel in anyway connected to them as I would say, TOSU. Pretty much, I'd like a team to follow just until C-town finally gets it's first hockey franchise since the 1970's (perhaps if the Cavs get good enough, they'll get a new arena or something in a few years and maybe this new team would play there?)
So, out of them all, I've figured out a few teams I'd probably rule out:
The Pens
No offense to VA., In fact if this team was like..in say..Erie or some place NOT Pittsburgh, I'd be a fan in heartbeat, the jersey's are awesome, they have some decent history, and Sid the kid seems pretty awesome, but something in my blood tells me I can't root for a Pittsburgh sports team.
Any team from NYC
Don't generally really like cheering on big market team.
Any team from Florida or Arizona
How the hell do they even have a hockey franchise?
Teams I'm considering
Boston Bruins
love the "B" and the colors, even though I hate the cities other teams
Buffalo Sabres
Hey if the locals there get to pull for the Tribe, I think I should have the right to pull for their NHL team, plus, I'm sort of naturally attracted to disapointment and failure.
Toronto Maple Leafs
Fairly close to me, and always liked their look overall.
Philadelphia Flyers
The broadstreet bullies just seem so bad ass, plus the jersey seem cool as well.
