IceCap Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 But still there are more Phoenix Coyotes or Nashville Predators fans in the states then Leafs fans.. That...is probably not true.AttendanceThe Leafs only have the third highest total % in the NHL. While Phoenix and Nashville are somewhere near the bottomThen back a year.Nashville and Phoenix are DEAD LAST in total home attendance. On the road in avg. they're both in the 16,000s. The Leafs are 17,000.Then another year.Phoenix and Nashville are 29 and 26 in total home attendance. On the road in avg. Nashville has 16,213 and Phoenix has 16,777. While the Leafs have 17,377. I bet there's more Predators fans in Nashville then there are leafs fans in the USA. more leafs fans then habs fans.

Cujo Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I just think that the Leafs are one of the most popular teams. They're an original six team. That alone should get them a spot on national TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 <-- native-born US citizen, Sens fan (yes, it's hard to explain) Also a native born, US citizen and Sens fan.Been a fan since Day One, part II. Everyone else was rooting for all the other expansion teams, no one liked Ottawa.I always liked the Senators name. And I liked Rick Bowness, because I liked him as a former Bruins coach as well.

Your Name Here Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 It's a historical misnomer, akin to calling the Netherlands "Holland." A more accurate term might be "The Six Survivors," as they are the six clubs that survived the Depression and the War. But anyway, the thing about Toronto is that its, well, Canadian. And while they do draw well on the road, while they and Montreal are the only Canadian teams you might be able to sell to the American public, they are still a Canadian team. There's a reason that the ratings for the '92 and '93 World Series weren't that great. There's a reason that the '04 Stanley Cup got record-low ratings. And that's because Nielsen doesn't count Canadian TV markets. The Lightning would've been better off playing with themselves. We're not talking about quantam physics here.

Roger Clemente Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Leafs is a word. If a team can be called Sox, there is nothing wrong with being called the Leafs. Besides, it's found here: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=leafs--Roger "Time?" Clemente. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours.
