This CHI/DET game is a painful reminder of how much I hate that they moved Detroit to the East. The fact that they broke up this rivalry is just stupid.

Not to mention, all they had to do to balance things out would have been to move Nashville to the South division.

Anything to make Det happy.

It is a shame, but the fact remains that Detroit never belonged in the West in the first place, really any more than Toronto did in the 90s and before.

The funny part about that though, is that Detroit is probably just as far from Chicago as it is from Buffalo.

I get that they are in the east time zone and all of that, but at the same time, that's just the way the cookie crumbles when the major concentration of teams is further east than you.

Rochester has been in the Western Conference of the AHL for as long as I can remember. I believe they are finally getting to move to the East Conference next year.

YES - you get a sure thing now and for the next 5-7 years!



You never know how things will truly pan out for McEichel?

No doubt you do that....The sabres can be losing this badly for the next 5 years but the people of buffalo would die for kane to come here.

I know Darcy offered a ton to the Hawks to trade for the pick, Vanek was part of it but it was a lot more.

No, I wouldn't give them both 1sts, if they made the deal just the 1st one if I was going to make the deal and I wouldn't make a deal to give up top centers for an older, smaller, winger.

No. They need a first line center who can make a winger turn into P. Kane.

Then they would never get the 1st or 2nd overall pick for a potential generational center.

I wouldn't make the deal anyway

The guy's contract makes him untouchable if you ask me. He is an UFA after next year so why even talk about trading for him?

Hypothetical: We win the lotto, Oilers pick 2nd and need D.

Can we/do we/would they take Ennis, Pysyk, our other 2015 1st, and 2016 1st for pick 2?

No. Nobody is trading out of the top spots. At all.

Roy with the primary assist on Yakupov's goal. This is a two for one special. Boston is really close to falling out of the top 8.
