New fan to hockey. Any essential hockey lore to catch up on? (lemmy.world)

Hey there, me and my girlfriend have been getting into the NHL recently and wanted to read up on some of the essential hockey 'lore', if you will!

Since we're based in the UK we picked a team that we have a good connection with and that ended up being Vegas as we've been a few times and love it. We started supporting pre Stanley Cup, so pretty good timing! 😂

If anyone has any suggestions, that'd be amazing!

Edit: We watched the Quest For The Stanley Cup series too, which was amazing! Really enjoyed that.

British fan here (Let's Go Caps). You're going to want to know about the 'Miracle on Ice'. The US loves that one.

And welcome. As a British fan, it's not always easy following the NHL but when it's good, it's really good.

Hey fellow Brit. Can't help too much with your question I'm afraid, just wanted to see if you knew about British hockey (EIHL, NIHL)? If not, it's definitely worth a go
