Name all 32 teams in the National Hockey League. The map shows the United States and Canada, and a pin marks the home arena of every team.
The pins are the hint. A pin tells you where a team plays, and you name the team. The famous teams are easy. The newest teams and the smaller markets are the real test.
How to play
Every pin is on the map from the start. A pin marks a team's home arena, not its name.
Start typing anywhere. The answer bar catches your typing and checks the answer at every keystroke.
The full team name, the nickname and the home city all count. Common short names count too, such as Habs, Sens and Avs.
New York has two teams, so the city name alone does not count for them. Type the team name or its nickname.
A correct answer shows the team, its home city and its division.
The timer counts up. Give Up shows the remaining teams and saves your score.
What counts in this quiz
All 32 teams of the current NHL: 16 in the Eastern Conference and 16 in the Western Conference.
25 teams play in the United States and 7 teams play in Canada.
The pin numbers follow the division order: Atlantic, Metropolitan, Central and Pacific.
A pin sits on the team's home arena, which is not always in the big city. The Florida team plays in Sunrise, and the Vegas team plays in Paradise, Nevada.
Some arenas are very close together, such as the three arenas near New York City. Their pins sit a small distance apart, so you can select each pin. The answer still shows the real home city.
The Utah team played its first season, 2024-25, as the Utah Hockey Club. That name counts too.
What's not included, and why
College, junior and minor league teams are not in the quiz. Only the 32 NHL teams count.
Former teams do not count, such as the Hartford Whalers, the Quebec Nordiques and the Arizona Coyotes.
A team's former name or former city does not count as a spelling.
