Rank: NHL's Best Mascots

The Vegas Golden Knights debuted their team mascot over the weekend. The team decided to go with a Gila Monster named "Chance". Just like everything else this organization has done so far, they got it right. Mascots are supposed to be fun, unique and somewhat intimidating. Chance fits the bill. That got me thinking, who are the best mascots in the NHL today?

In this edition of Rank, we will countdown the NHL's top ten mascots. This is totally biased and opinionated. But hey, we're ranking mascots here. To make this list the mascot has to cover three criteria. First, be appealing to kids. Second, be unique enough to standout in a crowd of 20,000 people. Last, be somewhat intimidating.

I probably should have made my wife make this list. She is the mascot aficionado. I just watch the games. However, here are my ten favorite mascots.

10. S.J. Sharkie
San Jose Sharks



9. Gnash
Nashville Predators







8. Mick E. Moose
Winnipeg Jets

7. N.J. Devil
New Jersey Devils

6. Stinger
Columbus Blue Jackets


5. Bailey
Los Angeles Kings


4. Wild Wing

3. Iceburgh
Pittsburgh Penguins


2. Fin
Vancouver Canucks


1. Youppi!
Montreal Canadiens
