4. Montreal Canadiens, NHL
The Habs have won the Stanley Cup an incredible 24 times in 33 appearances and trail only the New York Yankees in terms of North American team sports titles. Valued at $283 million, the Canadiens are well-back of hockey’s most valuable team — the Toronto Maple Leafs ($413 million). The Leafs have 11 Stanley Cups of their own, but don’t make the list because they haven’t won a single title in the modern era of the NHL. Meanwhile, the Habs have won 10 times since the NHL expanded from six teams in 1967. With names like Maurice Richard, Jean Beliveau and Guy Lafleur on their all-time roster, the Canadiens have produced many of hockey’s greatest moments.
