Re-Alignment Decision Expected Tonight

[filosofy29]

Oh... Still gonna be uneven divisions. I wish they would add two teams or get rid of two. I dont like anything being uneven.

Me too. I'd rather contract two teams than add two teams, but we know that's not gonna happen.

It would suck for fans of the teams contracted, but it would be fun to have a dispersal draft...

 

[SLY]

Fans of Phoenix and Columbus?

Sounds like TB, FLA, MTL + PIT aren't thrilled w/realignment. We'll discuss why on the #MvsW podcast this aft.


Hmmm...

 

[filosofy29]

LOL like that would happen.

Yup, we'd beat you guys in the 2nd Round.....





























.....and then get smoked in the Conference Finals like always.

 

[TiLoBrown]

Hell yeah, the Atlantic Division teams (especially those around New York) get to sleep in your own beds for like 75% of the season. You guys probably take busses half the time when you're not playing at home.

I know a lot of you guys out East don't think that travel takes a toll, but it does.

ah, yea. I thought you meant strength of schedule

Contract one of Phoenix/Anaheim out of the Western Division and one of Dallas/Columbus out of the Central Division and have a dispersal draft. Or contract one of the Florida based teams and add Columbus (if they don't get contraacted) or Nashville to one of the Eastern Divisions.

It sucks for those fans, but I believe it's just.

I admit, I'd hate it if it were SJ on the chopping block, but if the franchise wasn't getting proper fan support.....

SJ has a team?!? Maybe on Nintendo.

lol, rep....damn, whenever I get to. NEVER LACED UP SKATES A DAY IN THEIR LIVES!!!

For the record, the Fat Guy did do a pretty good job backchecking on Ilya Kovalchuk in the Shootout.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

So the New Atlantic will include my third most hated team (Carolina) with my top 2 (Philly/Rangers) and I get to see the Capitals more often. I like it.

 

[TiLoBrown]

Its gonna end up with me rooting against Carolina more often

Man, you guys are just too funny.

So, does this mean that the Flyers could play the Bruins in the Final? Or Colorado and Detroit?

/Sorry if this was covered. Playing catch up.
