Lee. Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Here is my realignment proposal, especially for Leafs fans.The EaglesonTorontoMontrealChicagoBostonNew York RangersDetroitThe BettmanEverybody Else.Top 5 teams from the Eagleson get into the playoffs, along with the 11 best teams from the Bettman. If Toronto is not in the top 6, then the top 10 teams from the Bettman are in, with Toronto making it into the playoffs as a crossover team. Should there be the need for a tiebreaker to determine playoff seeding, preference will be given to teams ending in ?onto.?

They play like rivals. They play as often as rivals. They are rivals.Wow, way to put words into someone's mouth.They are not rivals. Philadelphia's rivals are NJ and NY teams, because those cities are closer in proximity, and closer in terms of size and "lifestyle" (a horrible word, I know, but I couldn't think of anything else.)Your Pittsburgh inferiority complex is beaming in your post. I never degraded Pittsburgh, but the fact is that in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh is just another city that might as well be in another state. Not a crappy city, just not one that people think about.

And to tell the truth, Buffalo, Washington, And NYI are proably bigger rivals to us sice weve faced all them in the playoffs many times. But we treat Philly like rivals here, maybe were just jealous {of the city, not the teams}. Speaking of, I never accused you of calling Pittsburgh inferior.

Note the Loser sign language also... Baka baka! [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

To appeal to the traditionalists, bettman who by now is a head in a jar decides to renamed the conf/divisions after hockey greats. Howe/Gretzky for the conf. and Crosby, Ove, Fitzpatrick, Roy, Brodeur and Weekes for the divisions. Crosby and Ove i chose because by this time they will be regarded in the same way gretzky is. Patrick Roy and Martin Brodeur for obvious reasons. Rory Fitzpatrick because he is greatness. Kevin Weekes and Mario Lemieux was heatly debated but bowing to political pressure of not having a minorty represented on the divisions, Head in the Jar Bettman snubs mario and goes with Kevin Weekes. BY this time half of the nhl will have relocated to other planets and moons and odd ball places around the world to tap in to potential markets. The other half don't move but due to political correctness and everyteam name offending somebody, and due to the fact that all were nearly bankrupt, they sold off there team names, logos and colors to corporations ie Newscorp and Micro$oft. I didn't use Ford or GM because by this time ford and gm will be extinct.Its all good except maybe change the names of the conferences.
