New York Giants (1883-1958)
One of the most successful and historic teams in America...ruined because their jackass of an owner wanted San Francisco money. And to add insult to injury, their crest was stolen by some shitty expansion team that nobody outside of Queens likes.
Brooklyn Dodgers (1883-1958)
Same story. Left Brooklyn for the honor and glory of being the 5th-most popular sports team in Los Angeles

>5th-most popular sports team in Los Angeles
They're a solid 3rd tbf, right behind the Lakers and the Mexican national soccer team.
What happens to the fans of dead teams, where do they go?

I just started hating the Dallas Stars.

I hated the Dallas Stars before it was cool.

The sonics deserved to leave
>>69552465
They died in 1990. Hillsborough and Dalglish leaving killed them, everything after that was some bizarre sports equivalent of the Eastern Roman Empire.

The Pottsville Maroons
1920-1928

Ottawa Senators (1883-1934)
They had won 11 Stanley Cups during their time in Ottawa. Montreal only had only won 4 times while Ottawa was in the league and they now currently have 24. Ottawa would likely be the historical powerhouse team of the NHL if they didn't go bankrupt and Montreal doesn't get all those easy dynasties thanks to player territory rules.
