The popcorn is because in Sweden we call Americans "popcorn supporters" it kind of means that they usually sit back and eat popcorn while "stunts" (like cheerleaders, kiss cam etc.) are the "entertainment" while over here the supporters themselves make the atmosphere. You can say that we see them as customers while we are supporters.

By the way, that last video was from the Joe Louis Arena farewell. It was the home arena for the Detroit Red Wings, one of the original six teams and 11 time Stanley Cup champions, for 38 years. The Red Wings moved to the Little Caesars Arena at the start of the 2017-18 season but the Joe had a huge history, being the second oldest NHL arena only after MSG, so we made sure to give it a proper send off before it was decommissioned and demolished. Us Detroiters are insanely proud people (even if our teams fucking suck right now) so the Farewell to the Joe was HUGE. It was Henrik Zetterberg’s, the captain, 1000th game so there was a little ceremony before the game and then the Red Wings went on to win 4-1 that night. The video is from the ceremony after the game. Everyone got those little hockey sticks to raise to the rafters in tribute to the Joe with the Red Wings, the current team and all of the past greats on the ice together. There is a whole documentary about the Joe, that’s how important the arena was to the Red Wings and Detroiters.

Maple Leaf Gardens was opened in 1931 and closed in 1999. It was in use by the NHL for 68 years. The only arena to be used longer was the Montreal Forum which was in use from 1924-1996, four years longer than the Gardens. The Maple Leaf Gardens, however, is still in use as a hockey arena (though not by the NHL). It was also the site of the first NBA game in history as well as many other historic events. The Maple Leaf Gardens is one of the most historic arenas in the history of the game and still loved as a historic landmark. I was hoping the NHL would have taken the opportunity to have one last Stanley cup final in the Gardens during the return to play. Such a lost opportunity to pay homage to such an incredible building. Bitter Sweet doesn't even begin to describe the closing of Maple Leaf Gardens. I understand how it feels to watch a building close that is so intimately tied to the identity of a city and a sport.

@@joer8854 They wouldn't have been able to play the finals there because there's a Loblaws where the rink used to be. They even have a marker in one of the aisles to mark the location of centre ice.

They at least kept the exterior of the building intact so that you can see Maple Leaf Gardens written across the building.

Impossible, the European teams have existed for almost a hundred years and were influenced much more by Football. While Americans are only influenced by american football which is not even nearly the same. Yanks sit and eat during matches while Europeans keep on singing for their teams the entire match. That's the biggest difference. The yanks only sing "let's go rangers" and cheer for a little bit when the score. Europeans scream their hearts out every time and they sing like they are carrying their teams literally on their shoulders. It's overall just more aggressive and passionate and alive compared to american fans.

Also, a lot of the fan views in the video from the European games are showing the fan corner - the cheap seats behind the visitor’s goal.

Would much rather be in a nhl arena than European one. All the flags and streamers and placards are annoying. I want to watch the game , not have a flag in my face all game. I think that speaks to the quality of the game in Europe. They have to give the fans something else to enjoy rather than the quality of play. If you are watching Ovechkin or McDavid you don’t want a flag waving idiot dancing in front of you all game. You can also see how heavily influenced European hockey is by soccer. We all know that soccer is 90 minutes of mostly keep away with one, maybe two goals per game whereas hockey is big hits, fights, and goals. There is actually a product on the ice you want to watch, and it moves so fast you have to keep yourself focused on what is happening. You also have to keep your eye on the puck because it can leave the ice and hit you in the stands. I liked it better when the nets were not up behind the goal. Adam should react to that, pucks leaving the surface and hitting fans back in the old days.

[@pyryhillosalo]

In Europe fans never wave their flags during the game, only before the opening faceoff and when the home team scores. Also, this isn't a fair comparison because in Europe the atmosphere during regular season games isn't like the video suggests and arenas are usually only half full. But during playoffs both NHL and European games have awesome atmosphere 😎.

NHL: One chant and a few random fans while the national anthem plays. Europe: Huge montages of a lot of the fun and crazy moments. Of course Europe wins under those conditions lol

[@hockeyfan1539]

Take any conditions and Europe will win either way. They have their moments for sure NHL, but not the consistency that Europe has throughout all game.

[@raymondjones616]

@@hockeyfan1539 I have limited knowledge of the European atmosphere, but I would probly agree. Just that the comparison is obviously way closer than it appears on this video

Am I the only one that does not really give a shit about NHL and much rather follows the European leagues. My team is one of the top teams in Europe, Oulun Kärpät. I would much rather go watch a good game of SHL, Liiga or NLA than go to Montreal or Toronto.

It seems like Europe has more fans for football (soccer) games, because the shit they do is not for an arena

[@rosolenn]

I'm a Canadian hockey fan, since 1950 or earlier, and I agree. Canadians are just not as expressive as those hot-headed Europeans or even Americans. Let's say 2 guys get into a fight in a bar. Canadians just stand back, watch, and get another beer. Sort of like what happens in a hockey game. "Jes stand back and let 'er go at 'em, boys." I think it might be the Scottish heritage from the 1800s when Scots were a big deal here. Scots are a taciturn people and rough around the edges. It caught on so even Asian-Canadians and Italian-Canadians are like that after a generation. My theory.

[@johnnyskinwalker4095]

European fans realise that the show on the ice sucks so they create one in the stands. lol

[@Maggie0582]

I would absolutely love to bring an American to an European hockey game

[@valtteri5711]

I'm from Finland, and i would rather go see a SHL game than a NHL game. Yes the NHL hockey is better quality, but Swedish (and european in general) hockey is great too, and Sweden has way better fans.

having gone to both and all levels in north America, Europe hockey is nuts. it all boils down to one thing, beer is so cheap at European games rather then +10$ shit that is served at nhl games.

To be fair, the stuff that European fans do and get away with would put North American fans on death row. Yes an exaggeration, but still somewhat true.

You NEED to watch NHL fans taunt visiting teams and players. Nashville & Winnipeg fans have the best chants

[@loki7479]

I feel like NHL is made for tourists meanwhile Europe is more for the hardcore fans/the local supporters.

[@Bruhaha9]

You'd want to see the Oilers' 2006 playoffs fans for enthusiasm. Also - looks like the European fans wave around what they're given at the arena. Maybe the NHLers are more original?

[@eriklidell1891]

To anyone that says "didnt hear anyone from Europe sing" or whatever just watch my video during the intro and like 1-2 min into the game. Thats european hockey like. during the whole game.

I'm sorry, but do any of the European teams have fucking cannons that they fire in the arena? I don't think so. You get that in Columbus though

That Pittsburgh whiteout had to be during the 2008 Final. That's an arena full of people who voluntarily spent the previous two months becoming dopamine addicts with anxiety disorders. Those are no longer cheers; those are war chants.

[@adamzahariuk9496]

Edmonton is the loudest stadium in the playoffs we started the fans singing the Canadian national anthem

[@NicoLudwig-Halle]

Wow, the fans in NHL can sing there anthems... impressive.

[@seancrowe9571]

A Canadian myself who lives and breathes hockey can say that our fan engagement is not anywhere close to Europe whether its hockey or even soccer (footy). Hockey as a whole in North America don't grasp the concept of songs and anthems, we sing quick little chants such as "Go Caps Go" or "Lets go Caps" this is the same for every team in the NHL with a few tweaks here and there. Hockey in North America uses music to enhance fan engagement to "sing along" etc. Where as in the premier league there is no music its only fans singing songs and creating the atmosphere. I cannot say the same for european hockey as I do not follow those leagues. Cheers Adam

Usually the posters and flags are reserved for the “Ultras” and is pretty safe everywhere else. It was awesome, and I ended up raiding the fan shop afterwards.

[@meganmatyzius5016]

In the NHL, fans will only make a big commotion when there are fights/brawls or our team scores or a wounded player gets up. We are silent when the game is in play because its so important to us to watch the game, but when it comes to chanting for the playoffs we will scream our lungs out. If our team wins the cup, we are partying non stop. Have you seen the Stanley Cup winner parades?!

[@chimpinaneckbrace]

Euro ultras spend a ridiculous amount of time organizing their support with banners, flares, fireworks, rewitten song lyrics, etc. American fans just do whatever the the scoreboard and announcer tell them to do. Unless it’s the Stanley Cup Playoffs when they bring their aluminum foil Stanley Cups. Or those stupid ass chants that Nashville fans do. And I say that as an American hockey fan.

[@Tompa8989]

The difference between NHL and Europe is that in Europe it's the fans that makes the atmosphere and in the NHL it's the teams/arenas.
