Approximately how many NHL fans are there in the entire world?

Question

I want to know this answer, but it can't be hockey fans, it has to be specifically NHL fans, so basically fans in Canada and the USA combined. I just need an approximate answer (i.e. 12 million)

Answer 1

NOT ENOUGH....hockey is under appreciated...there should be more fans out there!!!

Answer 2

does your exsistence on this planet come down to whether or not you know approximately how many worldwide hockey fans there are?  if that's the case, sucks to be you.  that's impossible to estimate.  but i'll take a stab at it.  let's see, 6 billion people worldwide, divided by 4, minus 3.8 million, divided by 7......your answer is 213,742,857.

Answer 3

my predictions are 8-17 million fans in North American die hard fans and about the same in Europe so my guess there is about 25 million Plus Hockey Followers and about 6 million So-so fans

Answer 4

2.5 million American fans + 32 million Canadian fans = 34.5 million fans total...

Answer 5

The real answer when you subtract all the bandwagon jumpers, the homers and good time charlies is 6. Every one else is too jaded to be fans.

Answer 6

Well, there's about 32 million in Canada alone.  I'm guessing a few hundred million worldwide.

Wait a minute, I didn't catch the NHL thing there.

For the NHL, I'm gonna say about 45 million worldwide at least.

Answer 7

15  Million in Canada.

25 Million in USA.

Sounds good.  Worldwide, probably another 15 million.  

55 Million?

Answer 8

well the ratings to the stanley cup game 6 are:

so that is usa(2.5 million)

and i cannot find the world ones, sorry

Answer 9

Yeah, good luck with that one... that is impossible to figure out.
