What CHL Team Should I Root For?

[EastCoastBestCoast]

I need help finding a CHL Team to follow. I am a fan of defensive hockey (Devils, NHL; RPI, NCAA) but don't know anything about the CHL. Hopefully it's a team in the QJMHL or the OHL, but I don't know of any teams except Halifax, London, Sarnia, Erie and Quebec.
Thanks!

Watch a few games from different teams and pick. Most people are fans of the teams in the cities they grew up in.

I have some good friends who moved to Seattle after college. So I end up visiting them at least once a year and have been dragging them to a Seattle Thunderbirds game almost every time.

As it turned out, I had a tripped planned for last weekend and the Thunderbirds made the WHL Finals for the first time since 1997. So I was able to pull an audible and add attending a game to my trip.

So maybe pick a team that you might be able to easily attend? The choices might be slimmer on the east coast for the US though.

It's too bad Plymouth relocated to Flint. I had made a couple trips to that area and if you picked the right weekend, you could catch the Red Wings, Whalers (OHL), Wolverines (NCAA), and USNTDP (USHL) without driving very far.
