Simple question.

I wouldnt take on a new team. I'd just watch hockey.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

If they relocated, I'd probably still root for them wherever they moved.

If they folded, then I'd probably just watch hockey until Seattle came.

But it's the Bruins so none of this will happen

 

[Not So Mighty]

If they relocated, still them. If they folded, without question, I'd jump to Seattle.

I'd try to anyway. Instead I'd likely end up how I am as an NFL fan. I don't have a favorite team, I just love watching the league as a whole.

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

If the San Jose Sharks don’t exist, I’m rooting for whatever team Tomas Hertl plays for.

 

[93LEAFS]

I'd probably give up on the sport or just root for fantasy or gambling interests. Although, the day the Toronto Maple Leafs cease to exist, is likely the day the NHL ceases to exist.

 

[ScottyK]

Nashville probably, I love NASCAR and country music so why not ? lol

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Idk someone with a lot of ex NSH players or someone with a lot of Finns

 

[pb1300]

I live in Greece, and Im possibly coming back in the next year or two, so if the Panthers were to relocate, Id move to where they were, unless it was Quebec. If they were folded, I would probably be in Vegas or Seattle.

 

[SotasicA]

I would just watch old taped games over and over again.

 

[Johnnybegood13]

If the Flames moved I would still follow them but not as closely, I guess I would go back to cheering my first childhood team Boston.

 

[Crow]

If it happened soon? Seattle.

 

[MikeyMike01]

I would never watch another hockey game again.

 

[wej20]

Relocation doesn't matter to me as I have no actual connection/affinity with Pittsburgh the city (though it does look to be a cool place). If they folded then I guess I would see where some of the players went, maybe try to get on board with Seattle or just watch games to see if I could form a connection with another team.

 

[LeafGrief]

Local junior team.

 

[DowntownBooster]

If the Jets were ever to fold or relocate, I would do the same as when the original Jets left and that would be to cheer for the Manitoba Moose of the AHL. I couldn't give my allegiance to any other NHL team.

 

[Harvey Birdman]

For awhile it would be just cheering against the old rivals of my team if my team folded and wait for a team to stand out for me to follow. Relocation would be an extremely hard pill to swallow but I’d still follow them.

 

[end]

Already happened. I suppose I would pick my favorite player and be a fan of their team. That's how I became a Pens fan in 96.

 

[blue425]

Colorado.

One of my best friends has been an Avs fan since the Stastny brothers played for Quebec and as a result I know a fair amount about them already.

 

[Vegeta]

I'm not from Pittsburgh, but if they moved I'd give up on the sport. I'm a Penguins fan.

The moment they aren't the Pittsburgh Penguins, is the moment they're dead to me. I was prepared to give up the sport if we became the NHL Hamilton Bulldogs (despite that being infinitely closer to where I live) back in the 2004-07 era.

 

[tacogeoff]

Already happened once. Started following Ottawa but now I am back to the Jets

 

[FissionFire]

Nobody. If Detroit folded/relocated the NHL would already be effectively dead or on its final breath. Same if it happened to NYR, Toronto, Montreal, Boston, or Chicago.

 

[Chainshot]

Frölunda.

 

[Leafidelity]

The Raptors

 

[HisIceness]

Fox Sports Carolinas airs replays of Predators games frequently.
