Hockey Does Not Belong Below This Red Line

This bold hockey map claiming that the sport does not belong south of a drawn red line across the United States is getting completely dismantled by NHL fans. While traditionalists love to gatekeep hockey as strictly a northern and Canadian winter sport, the response at the top of the screen points out one massive flaw in that logic: the Stanley Cup has actually lived below that exact red line for six of the last seven years. Between the back-to-back championship runs from the Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers, plus the Vegas Golden Knights hoisting the trophy in the desert, southern franchises have completely dominated the modern NHL era. Does hockey belong everywhere, or do you still prefer the classic cold-weather markets over the warm-weather dynasties? Drop your thoughts in the comments!
