I was appalled to read THN.com’s Top 10 on the craziest fans and see the Vancouver Canucks faithful was omitted.
Vancouver was just named the greatest sports city in the world and that does not exclude their NHL fans. They are proud inventors of the towel-wave and their post-goal "woo" routine pumps up any spectator.
Not to mention, arguably the two craziest fans in hockey, Force and Sully, the two men who wear green spandex suits and sit beside the opponents penalty box and jeer the opposing players.
I was extremely disappointed to see, in my opinion, the fastest growing NHL fan base in Canada omitted from your list and, as much as it pains me to say this as a Canucks fan, the United Center in Chicago should also be considered for the top 10 as well.

"Last year we came in as maybe an underdog, quietly. Got off to the right start just because teams weren't really ready for us. But this time around that's not the case. They realize we are a good team and they're ready to go against us, right off the get-go."
