Xur Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I realize that we're 4 pages in and this hasn't become a trade Lou thread, so sorry for breaking the chain. (note, I'm not trying to make this a trade Lou thread) I just think it would be hilarious if he gets his dream trade to florida 2013-2014, then - 2014-2015, FLA reports they're relocating to Seattle.

Mad_Duck Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Awesome, let's start the rumor mill churning. (<nvm, I was up till three) I also noticed earlier that CBC.ca is reporting that the 'Hotsove' was the one breaking this news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJDDawg Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 i dont know why people dont think this is great for vancouver!?!? our travel sched is greatly reduced. we play in our time zone we get every team at least once in vancouver. ie crosby, stamkos, ovi, etc every year and for those thinking just switching detroit or cbj with winnipeg would be an easy fix. detroit has been promised an eastern move for years. and i just makes more sense all together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 How about we just keep it the way it is.... They can have Columbus and we'll take Winnipeg, there problem solved. EDIT: I think a whole realignment is idiotic, keep it simple.. What's up with all these major cities in the east and the west being so barren. lol Hurry up and build! If you build it they will come!

BigRedMachine Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Makes you wonder if the NHL is getting ready for a Seattle and Kansas City expansion? Seattle in our division and Kansas in the central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmonberries Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 @FriedgeHNIC: The new re-alignment NHL/NHLPA have worked on @FriedgeHNIC: Some kind of wild-card is being discussed for the two 8-team divisions. I'm not sure of the outcome, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surtur Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 It makes me giggle that you think Detroit is the 2nd furthest east team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonaldBrashear Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I love the new alignment. Why? Because every single team will visit Rogers Arena at least once a year. The way they have it setup (I understand) is we would play each of the 6 other teams in our new conference 6 times, and every other team 2 times. 23 x 2 = 46 games 6 x 6 = 36 games 36+46+ = 82 games So Toronto, Pittsburgh, Washington, Philly, Montreal, New York, Boston, etc. will all visit us once a year. GOOD! We lose Detroit, and Chicago... they only will visit 1x a year now. But we also dump Columbus, Nashville and Minnesota (thank god). No more crappy Minnesota games a bunch of times a year.

Luongo97 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Yep. No more crappy ass division to let our boys coast into the playoffs (with our expectations sky high due to a great record) and lose to an 8th seed. Oh wait, that's awesome. I've learned that being a fan of the only good team in a crappy division isn't all that it's made out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
