How has no one brought this up?
New NHL realignment plan:
http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index....d_move_ea.html
Modifies the old one they agreed to before the NHLPA balked.
East Division A: Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Boston, Buffalo, Tampa Bay and Florida
East Division B: Carolina, Columbus, New Jersey, the New York Islanders, New York Rangers, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Washington
West Division C: Chicago, Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis and Winnipeg
West Division D: Anaheim, Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Jose and Vancouver
Allows Detroit and Columbus to get into the Eastern Conference as Eastern timezone franchises. I love it.

Probably because it wasn't brought up until the HNIC broadcast that just ended, and I'm too busy hating everything.
It is interesting, though. Certainly like the Eastern Conference rivalries staying together. I'm sure all the Buffalo and Detroit fans down in Florida would be happy for it.

That said, I am still against anything that changes the format of the playoffs.

The Pens fan in me kinda hates it due to the fact that Detroit/Pittsburgh most likely won't have a deciding series unless they play this year. But also, I love it because they can build even more rivalries.

Like Detroit was going to the Finals anytime soon. Or if that series would be the same without Hudler and Sykora, anyway.

something needs to happen in san jose. fire mclellan, trade somebody, do something. 1 win in their last 9 games and only in one of those games have they scored more than 2 goals. 11 goals in their last 9 games. not going to win too many games with that kind of offense.

Yeah, and we'd have to drag Chris Osgood out of retirement.
Plus, which team would get Hossa so he could lose another Stanley Cup Finals?

Three games for each team, then coin flip for game 7.

Hossa don't play that no more. Didn't you hear, Chicago is never losing again.

To be in Ottawa?
Sabres are so far behind everyone else in the division. It's quite hysterical.

I do understand the excitement. But you get to go to games in the Bell Centre, I can't imagine anything else really comes close to it.

Going to Boston to see a game and beating them. Feeling is amazing. Every year we do that and we get in a scuffle. I love it.

Something about Chelsea Dagger makes me go from 6 to midnight pretty quickly...

Gagne back to Philly in what will likely be an ultimately pointless move. I pretty much always forget that he's still in the league.

Interesting. I personally like Ryder a lot more, but he's in the last year of his deal. He has been awesome for Dallas.

Sharks actually won. It may have been in the shootout...against the Avs....but I'll take it. Varly was awesome though.

is it bad i was rooting for them to lose? i mean this win means basically nothing since it was against colorado and it went to a shooutout, but i'm counting down the days until hopefully mclellan is fired.
