    Pretty cool but why do some of your abbreviations go by city name and others go by nickname?

  2. tcrex2525

    The Capitals were founded in 1974, not 1947. Anyone else find any mistakes on this?

  3. Lemfan46

    Where is the California Golden Seals to Cleveland Barons to Minnesota North Stars leg?

  4. Architeuthis_McCrew

    Why Las Vegas, Phoenix, Nashville and Florida got NHL teams long before Seattle is just baffling.

  5. corpulentFornicator

    The Devils played in East Rutherford (The Meadowlands) for a while before they moved to Newark. Same complex as the Jets/Giants/artists formerly known as the New Jersey Nets

    I love the simplified clean design it’s very retro. My only nit pick is the location of the jets is a bit too far west

    How did you make this map? I am looking to make a similar style map for something unrelated and am just curious.

    hey, not sure if you’re aware of this but FUCK NORM GREEN.

    alright, take ‘er easy now.

  9. Picture_Me_Rolling

    Ah yes, I love watching the the San Francisco Bay Area Sharks…

  10. I’m so confused… Why are the labels sometimes the city and sometimes the team name?

    Why would an NHL team leave a major Canadian city? Surprised Quebec City doesnt have a team still

    Shifting the colors if the lines makes this hard to read. It looks like. Col moves to ATL rather than Nj because it transitions from red to blue directly above a blue line, so your eye naturally follows the blue the entire way.

    Panthers are actually a Fort Lauderdale team

  14. We need another team in Atlanta. To get another Canadian franchise.

  15. You know what they say? If you want another Canadian franchise put a team in Atlanta and let it bake for 6-7 years.

  16. 7-11-inside-job

    Looked at it for a good minute. Don’t understand it

  17. lifeform_on_earth

    Wish we still had the Whalers in CT!

  18. The Hartford Whalers thing still hurts. We have nothing in Connecticut

  19. PrEsideNtIal_Seal

    I know Minnesota hates us for taking their team but it brought so much joy to my life having a team in Dallas. It was right after the Mighty Ducks movie had the team and Mike Modano in it. I was so excited he was in Dallas. Sorry for taking your team!

    My team the flyers never relocated, so your title is quite misleading.

  21. ZamboniJ

    Geez, ATL failed TWICE to hold onto an NHL team.

    Didn’t realize that Denver waited 20 YEARS for the NHL to come back.

  22. Lordcraft2000

    How are you considering the team start? In the NHL? Because if not, the Canadiens are far older.

    The mid nineties was a great era for EVERYTHING! Music, politics, movies, fashion, hockey…. glad to be a prodigy

  24. Oatmeal_Savage19

    You forgot Victoria Cougars to Detroit Red Wings

  25. WalterBishRedLicrish

    This belongs on r/dataisbeautiful

  26. 1clkgtramg

    Doesn’t look like a very productive subway system…

  27. EmbarrassedRelease63

    Will Quebec ever get a team again?

  28. FinkBass420

    I was scratching my head trying to figure out what Florida had to do with the Flames moving from Atlanta to Calgary. But then I realized the abbreviations are all over the damn place
