6. New York Rangers

The Tampa Bay Lightning did not make the top trending list, but the New York Rangers did. 

The peak of interest came in early June which was around the time that they were eliminated by the Lightning from the Stanley Cup Playoffs in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Former player Andrew Copp was the breakout rising topic for the team as he reached over a 5,000% increase in search.
