Shoutout to West Detroit

  1. I ❤️ New Mexico. But the Devils not being the most popular team in their own state is pathetic.

  2. I do understand it but also at the same time it always sorta puzzles me that the home team is the most searched. I search other teams way more than I search the Wings. I already know how the Wings players are doing I want to see how other teams that I’m not watching as much are doing

    On hockey reference at least. Evolving hockey is different for me, lots of Wings searches for analytics

  3. Moved from Boston to metro Atlanta 13 years ago. I’ve seen a lot of Detroit and Nashville, some Chicago, some Boston, some TB.

    I think I can count on one had the amount of times I’ve seen any Rangers gear.

  4. Can’t believe the Blues are more popular than the Preds in AL. I’ve never met a Blues fan here, and Nashville is so much closer, and considered the “local” team.

  5. That’s awesome though I would love to see the numbers because I’m pretty sure I’m the only Red Wings fan in NM. I’m not sure anyone else in NM even knows about hockey. I’ve seen a few other transplants from Metro-detroit out here but I don’t think any of them were hockey fans.

  6. The real surprise is the amount of states that were looking at the Coyotes, including Arizona itself.

  7. What’s up with Iowa?

    I grew up there, you can’t throw a fat chick 10 feet without hitting a blackhawks homer.

  8. Back during the streak, there were a lot more Wings areas… understandable during the slump

    I remember looking up team sales at a place I worked in the Wings cup years and the years around them…Wings were almost always 2nd to 5th most popular in every single market

    I would love to see those stats again…like a top 5 popularity in every state and province

  9. I wore Red Wings gear in Albuquerque one day…and was fascinated how many people approached me. I think there’s something about the winged wheel that feels very “Western”….one person didn’t know a single thing about hockey, just liked our logo lol.

    Never had that happen before, but AZ/NM is absolutely a Wings stronghold in the West. Makes it extra fun living in Colorado these days and seeing the fans around on a regular basis.

  10. This is interesting. I’ve always wanted to see a team in Maine. I feel like that’s necessary.
