For the Eastern Conference, teams will play all seven divisional opponents four times, with two home games and two away games, for a total of 28. They will also play the eight teams from the other division three total times. Four series will be two home games and one road game, and the other four will be one home game and two road games.

The Eastern Conference teams will round out their schedules with one home game and one away game against all 15 Western Conference opponents.

The Western Conference is a bit messier with 15 teams. The Central Division, which features seven teams, will have two home and road games against four teams, plus one series of three home games and two road games, then one series of two home games and three road games. That adds up 26 divisional games.

The Central Division will also play three games each against all eight Pacific Division teams. Four series will be two home games and one road games, and vice versa for the other four.

The Pacific Division, now with eight teams, will have six series with two home and road games, then one series with three home games and two road games, for a total of 29 divisional games.

I laughed the whole way through the reveal. It was all a hilarious failure, the owner gave the most cliche'd response to why he picked the team name and the new 'fans' booed Bettman as he came and left the stage....and that was before the hilarious failure of name and logo. That logo looks like the 'flying V' of team logos, the colors are horrible and why do I have a feeling having the word 'Golden' in the name is a bad omen? It's almost like the last team that called themselves 'Golden' something didn't work out too well....

How was it a failure?  Because all other 30 teams have the greatest names, logos, and colors in the world?  

 

Get over yourself.  People like you are just looking for the dumbest reasons such as a name, colors, logo etc. to bash it and hoping it becomes a failure.  When in reality, you people even thought there was no chance in hell Las Vegas would even get a hockey team.  Pretty clear to me, who the real failures are...

I like the logo, simplicity has been known to last in this league, that name is awkward though whether they have 'Las' in it or not.

Their logo looks a little like Bobba Fett's helmet. 

 

Lmao that actually kind of makes sense. Both are based off of the Corinthian (or mostly known as Spartan) design, or at least the LV logo appears to be.

Figured it would be * Knights.

 

There was a copyright issue with that name.  Same with Black Knights.

 

*edit*  Just noticed your star thingie there.  It was pretty much a foregone conclusion for a while now that it would be *Something* Knights.

I knew about "Knights" being taken already but there was a problem with "Black Knights" too?

(Foley) also admitted that his preferred name of "Black Knights" was unlikely due to various legal issues with trademarks, copyrights and domain names. For instance, even if West Point officials gave their blessing to using the nickname, the federal government would have had the final say.

if the canucks play them 4 times and they each a eastern team 2 times then it becomes 86 games

right now, you don't play each team within your division, or conference, the exact same amount of times..

 

13 other teams in our conference x 4 = 52

16 in other conference x 2 = 32

so you are already over 82 games there.

 

+ im pretty sure we play Arizona 5 times this year?
