Thirty-one teams in the NHL.
When are they going to expand to one more city?
Las Vegas was the first new team since 2000.
It's funny what you read from the casual observers sometimes. "They don't want to add a team in the West without adding one to the East" bullshit. If Bettman can add a team and it doesn't disrupt the league, all that talk is but pure speculation.Looks like the NHL was never concerned about symmetry when it came to the number of teams in the league.
From 6 to 12 to 14 to 16 to 18 to 17 to 21 (with the addition of four WHA teams) to 22 to 24 to 26 to 27 to 28 to 30 to 31.
i want to see then NHL to put in chips in uniforms so better stats could be put in and it would be easier to see who is on the ice.
Might just be because of your low IQ's. No other explanation.It makes too much sense which is why they won't do is. Commish Dumb Fuck is too stupid to enact this. How he got into the HOF is beyond me and countless others.

And Taveras is a Leaf.
seven-year, $77 million contract with Toronto
Why so negative?James Neal to Calgary 5 years at 5.75AAV
Poor signing for the Flames, they will regret this by the 2nd year
He's a pretty damn important player. Most of all I'd say he's pretty clutch.Leafs are now favored to win the Cup. He's that big of a difference maker in hockey?
Nobody outside Ontario will be pulling for the Maple Leafs in the playoffs.He's a pretty damn important player. Most of all I'd say he's pretty clutch.
But with Babcock at the help and the team finally on the right track. He's more than likely that big key piece every winning team needs. His pedigree is as good as anyone's in the league. They've had some other roster moves though so it may be a bit before they gell. He's definitely the real deal.
25+ years of no team from Canada winning a cup, there's going to be a lot of Canada behind this team come playoff time.
Been hearing that for years, not sure about this 100%.Nobody outside Ontario will be pulling for the Maple Leafs in the playoffs.
I'd root for the Rangers before them and that says everything.Nobody outside Ontario will be pulling for the Maple Leafs in the playoffs.
Hard to find a team who shit on their fans worse than the Isles. First Long Island losses their team to Brooklyn and now lose their big draw to The hockey capitol of the world. Charles Wang would be on a dartboard in my room if I was a kid the last 20 years. And Mike Milbury certainly didn’t help either.
I’d have to agree with that before hearing what TB gave up in getting Karlsson. Karlsson a bigger get than the Leafs picking up Tavares. Though Toronto didn’t give up anything and TB did.So if TB gets Karlsson...Toronto would have gone from Stanley Cup favorite to dog to win their own division in a week.
Does anyone have William Hill's Stanley Cup odds for 18-19? Thanks!
