The Hockey factor City by City

I though it might be interesting to see how hockey ranks across NHL cities compared to other major sports in that city, this is my opinion as i have watched hockey in 16 different cities and discussed hockey with many fans in the cities that i was in, i hope to add more cities this year in completing all 30 teams down the road, please feel free to correct me if your from any city and comment on what the ranking would be. The sports that will be used is NHL, NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS and CFL.
