The Rest of the NHL

that was all carcillo

We're probably looking at something like this if Bettman gets his way:

East = Boston, Buffalo, Montreal, New Jersey, NY Islanders, NY Rangers, Ottawa, Toronto
South = Carolina, Columbus, Florida, Philly, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, Washington
Midwest = Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis, Winnipeg
Pacific = Anaheim, Calgary, Colorado, Edmonton, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Jose, Vancouver

...and if he moves Detroit to make it 16/14, they'll go in the East and New Jersey will slide to the South (with Colorado taking the vacant spot in the Midwest)

Bettman mentioned "East" and "South", but "Northeast" and "Atlantic" makes more sense.  The only bad thing (?) is that it splits up the Flyers and Penguins again.

Northeast = Boston, Buffalo, Columbus, Montreal, Ottawa, Pittsburgh, Toronto
Atlantic = Carolina, Florida, New Jersey, NY Islanders, NY Rangers, Philly, Tampa Bay, Washington

So it looks like the bolded divisions will happen next year with the proposed realignment.  Detroit agreed to stay in the West if they only had to visit California and Vancouver once a year.  It also looks like they're going back to the old way for the playoffs, where teams faced division rivals for the first two rounds...

Change it to the real word.  Looks like a little drama down in Havas Heaven

i was listening to sports radio dc today on the way home and this wasnt mentioned at all...they were more concerned with whether john beck should be starting over rex grossman

[Seabiscuit36]

Foreskin radio?

Mckenzie did have a good point that Ovi needed his wings clipped and this was a good thing for them.

pannaccio just reported that theres no chance the flyers and pens will be separated

So Kaleta got 4 games for being a head butting flag.  Shanahans's words

[MDS]

why dont they just have 1 big division each conference

that way the southern teams can wallow at the bottom of the standings and the charade of 1 of them making the playoffs can be over

Carolina and Tampa both recently won Stanley Cups, sportswriter.

And a team that plays 10 minutes from Disneyland did too.

If you insist on insulting a league you know nothing about, try the LPGA.  It's got women and golf, neither of which you have any hope of playing.
