hockey fan

Puck sport devotee

A hockey fan is someone who follows and supports the sport of ice hockey, typically devoted to a particular team.

The term often carries connotations of passionate, vocal enthusiasm—hockey fans are stereotypically rowdy and loyal, braving cold arenas and celebrating fights as much as goals: The hockey fans erupted when the gloves came off.
