It’s almost the most wonderful time of the year. Hockey season! The NHL starts up in October. It’s been a wild and crazy off-season that has also been quite boring at times. However, we’ve made it. The NHL season is near! It’s that time of the year when fans are excited for their team to begin their season.

Not everyone is optimistic about their favorite NHL team because not every team can contend every year. However, there’s always a reason to be optimistic and to have hope. In this piece, I hope to not only give every team’s fanbase a reason to have hope, but also to bring out the awesome things about every NHL team that makes hockey such an awesome game.

Hockey’s an awesome game. Whether you’re a fan of the Chicago Blackhawks, Washington Capitals, Edmonton Oilers, Toronto Maple Leafs or the Dallas Stars, be excited and hopeful because hockey will soon be back!

This list will be done alphabetically by city name. I’ll give a paragraph describing why each team’s fan base should be excited, optimistic, and/or hopeful about their team. Every team has exciting things about them, and I really hope to bring that out.
