At least California has a hockey team – I grew up in New Mexico and wouldn’t have known hockey from lacrosse! (or is that lacrosse from field hockey? something like that…)

Nathan, funny chart.

This is the best graph ever. I feel better about the game already. Thanks.

Hey Bettman, take note.

(Bettman’s the NHL commissioner, who wants to skip the Olympics next time. He doesn’t understand that this is his chance to capitalize on this sudden interest.)
