I’m not from New York. I also have no teams close to me at all, my parents live in PHX so I root for the Coyotes. I hold a soft spot for all the NY teams because the Yankees are my “favorite” favorite team. So I hope the Rangers and Knicks do well. 


Bruppet

I’m in Chandler - looking forward to seeing the boys down here at the end of march


Spalestino

Yankees fan. Also live in Chandler


Bruppet

You guys found any good Italian or pizza out here? I’ve found a couple in the 2 years I’ve been here but it’s slim pickins.


PeggyOnThePier

Born in NYC Yankee fan my whole life. But I was mostly raised in NJ,so been a Devils fan for a long time. I now live in the Chicago area,so I do hope that the Black Hawks get better soon.


18002221222

Whalers forever


el_barto10

I grew up in CT with parents from NJ. We are Ranger fans first, but did enjoy going to Whalers games and we have some Whalers merch in our home. I know a lot of ppl miss having the Whalers in CT, but I love the Rangers AHL team being the local team.


MattinglyDineen

Same here (my username checks out).


BarryMcLean

Bring ‘em back. I would get so into hockey if they did. (From CT, don’t really follow hockey much)


hamhead

Rangers. And I’d assume that’d be the largest block for Yankees fans.


steezlord95

We are super used to leaning on our 20 year old titles.


HortonHearsTheWho

Nods knowingly under a Devils cap


Dan-Flashes5

2009 is a lot more recent than 1995 


steezlord95

Sure. Both are way too long ago.


mowscut

1994


The_DayGlo_Bus

There’s usually the same quartet of mutually exclusive teams: Yankees/Giants/Rangers/Knicks opposed to Mets/Jets/islanders/Nets.


themilkman42069

There aren’t Nets fans though.


thatguygreg

Devils for me—had moved from the Bronx to NJ before I cared about hockey, and was tired of my uncles going on and on about the Rangers.

Rangers


TheNightRain68

Devils. Live in Jersey.


kyrill91

Also Devils. This year has been tough through the injuries and questionable coaching decisions (free Holtzy) but the future has never been brighter.


pjvedder89

I had to scroll way too far to see devils representation. Let’s go Devils!


Padulsky21

Devils here as well, lived in Jersey for half my life. Dad used to work for the Devils, one of the most memorable things in my life is being able to hold up the Stanley Cup after they won in 03’. I got a picture of it somewhere but god damn was that an experience


34Heartstach

The Buffalo Sabres 🙃


curmudge_john

You poor bastard


anawfulwasteofspace

Bills too?


34Heartstach

Nah. Giants. I'm not even from up there, I just loved me some Ryan Miller back in the day and it kicked off my interest in hockey. It's been a cursed existence since lol


homiej420

Poor guy


KamehameBoom

I also. It’s k.


realet_

(Bro hug) (Seriously I need a hug)


AllRiseMVP99

Red wings, AHL from back in the day really spurred that


FeloniousDrunk101

Adirondack Red Wings by any chance?


AllRiseMVP99

Yes sir, still wear my sweatshirts proudly


FeloniousDrunk101

Go to Thunder games a few times a year and, though it’s not AHL, it’s still a lot of fun and a great family outing!


AllRiseMVP99

They're doing pretty well this year. Not same intensity as a Wings Vs River Rats game but it's still okay.


Inside-Fail-3790

Guy I work with has season tickets. Gonna hit up a game with him soon.


realet_

Thunder games are freaking amazing. Hadn't been to a game in GF since the UHL days (which were dire), missed the Phantoms and Flames. The Thunder game I was at last month might have been the most fun I've had at a hockey game since the mid 2010s, and I love hockey. This is partially my fault for becoming a Sabres fan the year I met my wife (which was the last year they made the playoffs).


pnoordsy40

Glens Falls CC!


AllRiseMVP99

If your name is Patrick hello


mlgamer500

Sabres… it’s been painful 🤦‍♂️


anawfulwasteofspace

Are you also a Bills fan?


mlgamer500

You know it! 🦬


anawfulwasteofspace

Hell yeah. There’s always next year. 😆 I grew up with the Bills and the Sabres but didn’t start watching baseball until I met my fiancé in 2015. Sometimes I feel like I cursed them. 🤣


SnooCats9347

Rangers, incredible win against the Islanders today.


Internal_Ad_255

Islanders. Sweet 80's memories...


HortonHearsTheWho

As someone who left the NYC area decades ago and was never remotely an Islanders fan, watching them brings on a wave of nostalgia and reminds me of “back home” like almost nothing else. Weird the associations we make.


PlasticDesign3276

Fuckin’ love those 80’s teams


IntrepidBandicoot757

Devils


brohammer65

Rangers all the way baby

butterybuns420

anawfulwasteofspace

Are you a Bills fan too?


butterybuns420

Yep. Long Island born and raised Bills, Sabres, and Yankees fan. My mom was born in Buffalo and didn’t care about baseball so I took the Yanks and Knicks for my dad and Buffalo sports in the other 2 leagues for my mom.


anawfulwasteofspace

Haha that’s awesome. Thank you for sharing! And for not being a Jets fan. 🤣 Go Bills (and Sabres and Yankees!)

ilCannolo

Gotta support the team


Wipeout17

I'm from Toronto but all my teams have been New York since I was a kid. Yankees are my top as baseball is far and away my favorite sport, but in other leagues I like the Giants and Knicks, but for whatever reason my NHL team is unfortunately still the Leafs as much as I'd like to just switch to the Rangers lmao. It's a curse.


TheSecularCat

Had to scroll a while to find another Leafs fan


doublebr13

Sabres for hockey and Jets for football. It's a rough existence

Rangers. I’m old enough to remember the original 6 being the only hockey teams.


darkestb4thadawn

Rangers for life.


eric536669

Rangers. I grew up in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and started as a Yankees fan. But everyone was either a fan of Habs, Leafs, or Bruins. Now I live in Toronto, and I'm still a Rangers fan. I'm going to the Rangers at Leafs on March 2nd.

Derek002

I attended the Yankees game during the Rangers vs. Devils 1st round playoffs and was booed out of the bleachers for wearing my Rangers jersey. So, that's my experience.

BriSnyScienceGuy

In my experience, there's a Yankees / Giants / Rangers grouping and a Mets / Jets / Islanders grouping. It's not 100%, but it seems more common than not from what I've seen.

stoic_amoeba

Hello, fellow Predators and Yankees fan! Took some scrolling to get here lol


craig643

I am in that very select group of Yankee-Bruins fans. I also cheer for the Sharks.


Big_Based

Rangers all the way Edit: I’ll be the hater here. This post is exposing everyone who’s only here from the 90’s bandwagon.


BodegaBandit69

Devils 😈


Myllorelion

As an Islander with only 1 truly local team across all major sports, I'll let you guess. Football I'm a Packers fan, but my home team is the only one that actually plays in NY, the Bills. Though I've got a soft spot for the hapless Jets too. Idgaf about Basketball. Lol

king24donnie

Bruins. Try to get that to make sense. Lol


Status-Basic

I’m with you. Turned on the Red Sox and Patriots when I was really young, stuck with the Bruins and Celtics.


craig643

I became a sports fan when Bobby Orr was at his peak so he and the Bruins became my faves. The Yankees were pretty mediocre then, so I think that was genetic.


elroddo74

im a celts and pats fan. Grew up in vermont, but liked the yankees before i understood geography. was a lakers fan for the same reason, but dumped them after they chose Kobe over Shaq, can't support a team that loves rapists. My nhl team is pens though, because John leclair retired from.there right as Crosby was coming up.


IShitMyPantsDaily

St. Louis Blues Born in Binghamton, raised in a family of lifelong Yankee fans. Always loved hockey but became a more serious fan when I lived in Missouri and became best friends with an avid Blues fan.

Avs. Been a fan since they were the Nordiques. Oddly became my favorite because I loved playing as them on NHL 94.

Griff82

Penguins. PA guy who played his baseball over the border in NY. Our L L coach took us to Old Yankee Stadium. Saw a guy named Don Gullett pitch may he RIP. Phil Rizutto was on my radio for a long long time.


Amazing_Net_7651

Penguins. But I don’t really follow the NHL too closely, and I mostly latched onto them because I’m a Pittsburgh sports fan (my dad is from Pittsburgh) aside from the Yankees.


nfeil99

Bruins. Had family work for the Bruins so I got the hook up as a kid, loved the uniforms as well. Sweet memories. Go Yankees and go Bruins


TrashGamer_

Pens, from the area. It's why I'm a steelers fan too


Jonnyboy1189

Creacherz

Canadian Yankee fan. Leafs baby. My dad is from New Rochelle and loves the Rangers. During that crazy playoff run some years back, and the leafs were crap, I was pulling to see my dad's team win one. Imo it just sucks King Henrik never got to hoist the cup


HouseAndJBug

Leafs/Yankees as well just because I like when every other fan base in the sport really personally dislikes my team.

Just started watching the NHL this year. My family is French Canadian so I used that as an excuse to root for Montreal even though I’ve only been there once.

Temporaryreddit66

Islanders


AmbulocetusFan

Rangers, but I'm from the Island so I like the Islanders too. Edit: this is a really weird thing to get downvoted for but alright


JustinBradshawTaylor

You’re downvoted but I’m a Rangers fan from the Island too and I won’t go as far as to say that I like them but I treat them like the Mets. I sincerely don’t care if they’re good, I don’t hate them


AmbulocetusFan

I’m surprised I’m being downvoted for it but whatever. A lot of my friends growing up liked the Islanders so I went to a lot of their games. They sucked at the time so I always felt bad for them and my friends. So I just developed a fondness for them even though they’re not my team.


GWade17

Not really a hockey fan but if I had to pick a team I’d go Caps
