30 NHL teams as Chain Restraunts
Not exactly informative but some of them are quite funny. I always enjoy a good laugh:

Calgary Flames - Arby's
Watching the Flames is like eating thinly sliced hot dog meat....just like what you get at Arby's!

Every year, you feel like it's gonna be a ton of fun, but in the end, you find that it's just a bunch of kids running around like idiots.

I burst out laughing at the "kids running around like idiots" thing. So perfect.

That Flames one is not funny--and I'm not playing the homer card here...it's just stupid, and a forced attempt to link a lame "Arby's = not real meat" joke to an NHL team.
At least be honest about not knowing anything about the Flames, and make THAT a joke, like:
"Calgary Flames = 'That Restaurant You've Heard So Much About': every time it's name comes up, you say you've been meaning to check it out, but you don't, because, deep down, you really don't care".

If that writer's work was a restaurant it would be McDonald's. "Seems interesting at first, but once you're done, you feel like you're going to puke your guts out"
Terrible article

Some of those were awful. Bruins, Leafs and Oilers were great though.

The only thing elite about Ruth's Chris is their pricing.

That's the most mind-numbingly stupid thing I've read in awhile, and I recently read the Republican platform.

Like most comedy articles like this, some were funny, some were mildly amusing, and most were bad, but I have to give them credit for the Taylor Hall birthday boy photo:

Leafs and Oilers were great, Flames was just dumb. More of a shot at Arbys. I am confident a CPer can do better.

Maybe Flames: Tim Hortons - try hard with a loyal following, but no one expects much.
Edit: goddamit, this is harder than it looks.

There were like four good jokes in there, crowded by some of the feeblest attempts at humor I'd ever seen! Just like Earl's. If food were jokes. And like, humor was a menu. Or something. Oh, and there's a crowd. Sometimes. They have that in common. Occasionally.

I laughed at some of the more dumb ones, simply because they were bad.

Vancouver Canucks should have been Pizza 73.
Everyone knows that you dont buy Pizza 73, you rent it, and it'll always bring you to your knees writhing in pain.
