❄️ A Sport Born in the Cold, Built for Passion

Ice hockey traces its origins to 19th-century Canada, where frozen lakes and hand-carved sticks laid the groundwork for what would become a professional, high-octane sport. The NHL was founded in 1917 with just four teams. Today, it boasts 32 franchises across Canada and the United States, drawing millions of fans each season.

A panoramic view of a packed ice hockey arena, featuring flags of Canada and the USA, with players on the ice and fans in red attire.

Whether it’s the Montreal Canadiens' historic dominance, the Original Six legacy, or the excitement of modern expansion teams like the Seattle Kraken, the league continues to evolve while honoring its storied past.
