lopernv Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Expansion would be crazy. IMO, there's just not enough talent to field 30 teams as is, nevermind 32!Take a look at the CHL and college hockey and soon enough there will be enough to fill 32 teams.

jtthasportfreak Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Seeing as how Ron MacLean on CBC Sports proposed a Northern and Southern Conference alignment including Halifax, the Maritimes and even Beautiful Downtown Burbank, Canadians seem to be high on something, not just their latitude location.

Stampman Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 In order to make all fans happy,I dont mean to sound like a jerk, but if you name a conference "The American Conference", you will most certainly NOT make all fans happy. If I was Canadian, I would take that as a HUGE slap to the face.Or we can rename the American Clarence Campbell and the national Prince of Wales.Actually pretty much everyone was split up from their rival. I can't imagine any team being happy with this.Haven't you read my season. Each of these rivals are INTERLEAGUE rivals. Since they are in the Same geographic division of their respective conferences, they play each other 4 times in the season, just like if they were in the same division. So Chicago would still face St. Louis 4 times since Chicago's in the NC North and ST. Louis is in the AC North. If St. Louis was in the AC South, they would only face each other twice.I read the reason--I still don't like it. The Flames & Oilers & Canucks should be fighting it out for their division. Just because they play each other the same amount of times doesn't matter to my disagreement.It's that divisional jostling...

Luigi74 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I think the NHL really needs to go to a NFL/MLB type set-up, I think having all of the NYC and LA media market teams bunched into the same divisions hurt's.Wales ConferenceEast - Boston, Florida, NY Rangers, Pittsburgh, WashingtonCentral - Buffalo, Columbus, Montreal, Ottawa, TorontoWest - Anaheim, Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, San JoseCampbell ConferenceEast - Atlanta, Carolina, New Jersey, NY Islanders, PhiladelphiaCentral - Chicago, Detroit, Nashville, St. Louis, Tampa BayWest - Calgary, Edmonton, LA, Phoneix, Vancouver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griffelh Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Please, no more expansion. There has been too much as it is and that is a big part of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zig Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I really don't think we need to re-align the NHL. I would like to go back to the old coference and division names though.I think the NHL really needs to go to a NFL/MLB type set-up, I think having all of the NYC and LA media market teams bunched into the same divisions hurt's.Wales ConferenceEast - Boston, Florida, NY Rangers, Pittsburgh, WashingtonCentral - Buffalo, Columbus, Montreal, Ottawa, TorontoWest - Anaheim, Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, San JoseCampbell ConferenceEast - Atlanta, Carolina, New Jersey, NY Islanders, PhiladelphiaCentral - Chicago, Detroit, Nashville, St. Louis, Tampa BayWest - Calgary, Edmonton, LA, Phoneix, VancouverAgain separating rivals is not a good idea for the NHL. New Jersey should stay with the Rangers and Colorado with Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
