What does everybody think of the proposed realignment for next season? 2 conferences, 4 divisions.
Conference 1
Division A: Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Florida, Montreal, Ottawa, Tampa Bay, Toronto
Division B: Carolina, Columbus, New Jersey, New York Islanders, New York Rangers, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Washington
Conference 2
Division C: Chicago, Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis, Winnipeg
Division D: Anaheim, Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Jose, Vancouver
Playoffs top 3 teams are in, plus 2 wildcard spots for each conference.....this might go a bit further into making sure you have the best teams in the playoffs. one division could have 5 teams in the playoffs, while the other in that conference might have only 3. Playoffs will also be within the division, instead of the conference, so we could see some wicked matchups in the first round. Might make for a tougher playoffs overall, with teams playing off against better teams right from the start.
