Whats with the "?" After McD? He's more of a lock than the other 2.

Yeah, you're probably right. I just haven't been paying attention to who the other possible d-men might be for the US.

 

[yyzjohn]

Teehee! Subban is going to be a Norris nominee every year for probably the next 10 years. Get used to him, bro, he's an olympian. And not a bottom pairing one.

I heard a rumor that PK stands for "Pretend Karlsson" is that true?

What a wacky name choice.

 

[bonesmccoy]

METROPOLITAN?!?!?!

 

[Cake Boss]

The Metrosexual division.

 

[ActStriker]

Detroit in an Atlantic division, huh

 

[KingHenrik30]

Just when you thought it couldn't get any more fucked....

To borrow a parlance of our times, Who are the ad wizards that came up with this one?!?

 

[Kifimbo]

Need a Cosmopolitan division. Central could be Redneck division.

 

[Samyy]

I blame everything on Mad Men

 

[DopeyFish]

Detroit in an Atlantic division, huh

Wait what the fuck we are Atlantic division?!!!?

Whaaaast that makes zero sense

 

[Cake Boss]

Start the season off with a 6 game road trip, with 2 back to back games in it. Awesome thanks NHL.

 

[MetatronM]

Metropolitan what the fuck?!


Dat 9 game opening road trip.

Dat 9 game home stand in December.

 

[Curufinwe]

Metro is as good a name as any they could have picked but...

Pittsburgh and Columbus should swap places with Tampa and Florida. Then you would have a Northeast division, and a real Atlantic division. Surely that is worth sacrificing one or two Pens/Flyers games per season.

 

[calder]

Metro? METRO!? Lol.

I prefer Norsoueast.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Detroit in an Atlantic division, huh

I can see the Atlantic Ocean from my house!

 

[lamaroo]

Wooo Metro bitches!

 

[Fata1moose]

USA - Stastny (maybe), Johnson (maybe)
Canada - Nope.jpeg
Sweden - Landeskog (maybe)
Russia - Varlamov
Czech - Hejda (maybe)

I was wondering about the division names, though I thought they were going to be conferences and not divisions and there would be no east/west. Knew they would go with something boring.

 

[DopeyFish]

I want northeast back

 

[CrazedArabMan]

I wanted us to be in the Metro Division so I can say, "Welcome to ze Metro".

 

[KingHenrik30]

Metro is as good a name as any they could have picked but...

I'm pretty sure anybody here would have been smart enough to keep the atlantic the atlantic and come up with a new name for the northeast.

I'm also pretty sure anybody on here would have been smart enough to NOT put the Florida teams in the Northeast.

I swear to god we have morons running this sport.

 

[lamaroo]

Montreal opens at home this season? Nice.

Then a road trip through western Canada.

 

[apocalidiot]

Metro ey? Sounds dandy

 

[Kave_Man]

Hahahahaha

 

[MetatronM]

Metro? METRO!? Lol.

I prefer Norsoueast.

The Norsoueast is the Atlantic Division.
The Atlantic Division is the Metropolitan Division.

My mind is full of fuck.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Oh nice Canucks open the season on the road against San Jose. That should be fun.

 

[Solo]

No Habs/Sens til November 7.

Going to Habs/Pens Niovember 22 and Habs/Bruins Dec. 4 this year I think.

 

[Fata1moose]

I'll be going to the Avs home opener vs the Ducks. Hope that new jumbotron that goes blue line to blue line doesn't fall on anyone.

 

[Clydefrog]

Aw crap, USA has to play against Team Kopitar

 

[ZeroGravity]

lol Lightning open on the road against Boston and Chicago

 

[Cake Boss]

We have 16 back to backs?

 

[ActStriker]

16 back-to-backs for the Bruins, including 1 to end the season. 10/14 games on the road to end the season

Seguin's return on Nov. 5

Post-Olympic break, esp March, is brutal:
3/1, 3/2, 3/4, 3/6, 3/8, 3/9, 3/12, 3/13, 3/15, 3/17, 3/18, 3/21, 3/22, 3/24, 3/27, 3/29, 3/30

It'll be just like this past season

 

[Fata1moose]

We have 16 back to backs?

Haha that is a ton! We have nine, two of which are home and homes which you can discount as both teams will have no advantage.

 

[Curufinwe]

Flyers get 11 of 15 games at home starting after the Olympics and ending on March 30th. I'm going to try and go to one of the Saturday afternoon games against the Rangers, Pittsburgh or St Louis.

THAT'S SO FETCH

 

[Solo]

Metrosex division named to appease Crosby. It was originally going to be called the Reacharound Division, but they talked Sid down.

 

[jello44]

Metropolitan....


...really?

So stupid.

 

[Cake Boss]

Strombone ‏@strombone1 33s

When does the schedule for the KHL get released??? I kid I kid.......

lol.

The Olympic break caused this compressed ass schedule.

 

[Curufinwe]

I'm pretty sure anybody here would have been smart enough to keep the atlantic the atlantic and come up with a new name for the northeast.

I'm also pretty sure anybody on here would have been smart enough to NOT put the Florida teams in the Northeast.

I swear to god we have morons running this sport.

It's all so the Flyers and Penguins can play 4 or 5 times per season instead of 3. It's ridiculous.

 

[Acid08]

Metropolitan is pretty shway.

Bring on the season.

 

[Socreges]

Metro is FIERCE.

Holy shut the NHL is run by monkeys. Glamorous monkeys.

Locker room cancer Cory Schneider and his New Jersey Devils visit Vancouver October 8th. Should be good.

We have 16 back to backs?

We have 15 and much worse travel. You got off lucky.

Also amazing gif

 

[jello44]

Metro is as good a name as any they could have picked but...

Pittsburgh and Columbus should swap places with Tampa and Florida. Then you would have a Northeast division, and a real Atlantic division. Surely that is worth sacrificing one or two Pens/Flyers games per season.

I could live with that really, the less I have to see/hear about Crosby, the better.

 

[Spl1nter]

Starting Oct 1st, Leafs vs Habs, nice.

Than Oct 2nd against Flyers, lol b2b right away with travel thats interesting.

 

[Clydefrog]

this is amazing

 

[Acid08]

Longest road trip is 5 games.

10 back to backs.

No home and home with the Queens to end the season anymore

Pretty great overall.

 

[calder]

With those goalies in net we'd need it.

It will give Canada some easy games to test out which of the 24 natural centers they will have starting goal the first game of the medal round.


Jets:
Canada: Ladd (believe!)
Czech Rep: Pavelec, Frolik
Sweden: Enstrom maybe if he's healthy
USA: Byfuglien, Bogosian

 

[MetatronM]

Looks like 11 back-to-backs for the Rangers.

10 of 23 games after the Olympic break at home. And ending the season at the Bell Centre. Fuck.

 

[Curufinwe]

It's cool to have the traditional post- Christmas West Coast road trip back. Philly plays Calgary on December 31st, 9pm ET so the game might not finish until 2014 if there's a shootout..

 

[Vyse24]

USA: Ryan Callahan, Derek Stepan, Ryan McDonagh?
Canada: Rick Nash, Marc Staal?
Sweden: Henrik Lundqvist, Carl Hagelin?, Oscar Lindberg?
Norway: Mats Zuccarello

That's probably everyone.

Kreider and Miller could make team USA. Same for Richards and MDZ in Canada.
