from the Toronto Star,
The Toronto Maple Leafs are the most popular NHL team in Canada, but enjoy the lowest percentage of hometown supporters, according to a study released yesterday.
Across the country, 26 per cent of people asked to pick their favourite team chose the Leafs. The Montreal Canadiens followed with 23 per cent.
But only 63 per cent of fans in the Toronto market picked the blue and white as their favourite team, giving the Leafs the smallest percentage of hometown support compared with the other five Canadian markets.
