Typical entries from these levels include Blackhawks, Blues, Jets, Sabres, Sharks.
Boards in this category average 6 answers, against a game-wide average of 6. The longest answer anywhere in NHL Teams is Goldenknights at 13 letters — entries like that are worth hunting first, because clearing them strips the awkward consonants out of the pool and leaves the shorter words easy to spot.

3 Tips for NHL Teams Boards
Let the theme do the filtering
Every answer in this category is a nhl team word — the theme is the only clue Word Salad gives you, and it is a strong one. Before you look at a single tile, run through the NHL Teams words you know; examples straight out of these boards include Blackhawks, Blues, Jets, Sabres, Sharks.
Longest first, every board
Across all 50 levels here the longest answer is Goldenknights at 13 letters. Long entries consume the awkward consonants and leave a pool that spells the short answers out for you. Boards in NHL Teams average 6 answers, so clearing the long one usually leaves only a handful to find.
Know which boards bite
Level 1 is the heaviest board in this category with 6 answers, while level 16 is the lightest at 5. Difficulty climbs gradually through a category, so if you are stuck, a neighbouring level is the best hint — the boards share letter patterns. The daily puzzle rotates a new theme every day if you want a change.
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify the NHL Teams category
All 297 answers across these 50 boards are read from the NHL Teams level data itself. Each word is checked against the letter pool its board actually gives you, so nothing is listed that the game would reject, and the level numbers are confirmed sequential with no gaps before the index publishes.

How to Solve a Word Salad Board
Three moves that clear a Word Salad board, in the order worth making them.
Read every category name first
The category names are the whole clue. Reading all of them before you move a single word tells you which groups are narrow and which are broad, and the narrow one is always the cheapest place to start.
Place the words only one group can take
Some words fit two categories on sight and some fit exactly one. Placing the unambiguous ones first shrinks the pool for everything else, which is what turns a stuck board into a solved one.
A full category is a finished category
Once a group has all its slots filled, nothing else belongs in it — and every word you have left belongs somewhere else. Working by elimination beats re-reading the same word against the same category.
