Chicago fans are bandwaggoners. They aren't die hard at all. They abandon their team when they go through losing seasons. Before they won cups not too long ago you had trouble finding Blackhawk fans.
Having lived there for 11 years, I have to agree. I ran across so many "fans" who had no idea who Roenick, Chelios and Savard are.

VAN v ARZ ... how bad could that game possibly be to watch?

It was pretty awful. Basically nothing happened for 60+ minutes. Well one thing happened, that damn Stepan goal in OT sent me plummeting in the Draftkings standings. I went from 25 x entry fee winnings to 3x.

Lots of scoreboard watching tonight for the TANK. Buf v Ott, Veg v Det, Mtl v Fla, Car v Chi, and Nyi v Edm.
Three point games please with wins going to Ottawa, detroit, Montreal (sorry florida), Chicago and Edmonton.
3 point games very important in all of those minus the Detroit game.

Two surprises, Stepan #2 as most likely to be coach. Mostly surprising because he's not a big name. Other surprise is Chicago for best fans by a long shot.
Lol Carey Price 4th best goalie of all time. These are NHLers they asked?!

edit: I guess a whole bunch of goalies could be tied at 4 with 3% but seriously...?

It's worse than that. He had the fourth most votes for best goalie of all time. Either the players are from Montreal or are really young and don't know NHL history.

Crosby couldn’t wash Lemieux’s jock, let alone Gretzky!

No one said he was the greatest player to ever have or will ever have lived and that he puts legendary players to shame. They said he was ONE of the greatest, which is hard to argue against despite how much most of us hate him. Captain of the closest thing to a dynasty in the cap era, Multiple 100+ point seasons, multiple (and now back-to-back) Cups, multiple Olympic golds, winning the WC, a plethora of individual trophies, well over 1 PPG in the regular season and over 1 PPG in the playoffs..he's kinda pretty good at hockey.

Lemieux and Gretzky played a different sport

I'll never forget as an intern watching a game with Lemieux, Gretzky, Messier, Francis, Jagr and Leetch.

Even if the game was fairly unremarkable, and one of thousands I'd see, I knew I'd remember it for the rest of my life.

Man Grabs is MIA. 7 games zero points. Don't worry we welcome you back with open arms for another 25 plus goal season.
