The top five are not surprising at all, including the Maple Leafs, Canadiens, etc. Minnesota and Detroit also are a part of their slide show.
The worst? It's easy...*every* one of the worst fan bases come from the south. No surprise there at all...nobody cares about hockey in the south. And the south doesn't deserve hockey. Move these teams north. I don't care if Minnesota has two damn teams, at least they'll sell out.
