St Louis for me for the same reasons I dont like the Islanders.

Utah Mammoth was the best name available and gets a fresh start for me, at least they didnt get a completely broken expansion draft. I think Bettman tried to make Phoenix into what Vegas is, but it didnt work.

Red Wings havent been relevent since the 90's, similiar management to ours where they refuse to actually rebuild to make an actual contender. feels relatable.

Utah/Arizona franchise for being the welfare champs.

The Wings have been out of the playoffs for 9 years
How are they refusing to rebuild?

F the Wings.
F the Utah Jets.
I don't mind St. Loo though. Why do people hate them?

[Gallick]

I don't understand how Detroit made it this far. They were my most hated team for years. Franzen and Holmstrom were absolute menaces to play against. They basically put a bow on Jamie MacLennan's career with their shenanigans. They beat us in the first round in '07.

Maybe I'm holding a long grudge, but having them on the same level as St. Louis and Utah is unconscionable!

St. Louis for that obnoxious ring bell and counting thing they do after scoring goals. and at the end of periods sometimes.

Yeah, I went with them too because of ‘07. And they were annoying in the west for YEARS.

Is that a real question?
