Wisconsin Hockey
Question...Who do they root for in WI NHL wise?? I imagine they wouldn't take the Blackhawks, right? Do you get any NHL games besides the ones on VS?

I would assume the the Wild get coverage out there along with Chicago. I've heard though that the Wisconsin Badgers are the big hockey team in the state.

Could they support a team...not the fans but the corporate $$ that owners crave?
BTW whats with Bucky this year? Is it a reload, they looked slow vs Gophers.

Most of WI just isn't very big on hockey (which is in direct and stark contrast of course to hockey-rabid MN to the west and MI - home of the loved Red Wings - to the east).
Two decades ago, the thoughts were hot for bringing an NHL team to Milwaukee (henceforth the Bradley Center's hockey-friendly design), however, that ended up fading out (and thankfully so - the NHL never would've survived here through the 90s).
I am sure there are some scattered Wild, Blackhawk, Red Wings, and Predators fans here, but largely, the hockey that *is* followed in the state (the little that is), is the UW Badgers (NCAA) or the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL).
