[QUOTE="TRF_Ezequiel, post: 399299, member: 42683"] [CENTER][IMG]http://wegotthiscovered.com/wp-content/uploads/nhl-logo.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] Discuss anything about the most prestigious hockey league, the National Hockey League. The NHL was founded in 1917, and in the first 2 seasons, the Montreal Canadiens grabbed the ***le. Due to expansions several times, the NHL has turned into a monster league, counting 30 franchises today. The latest expansion was in 2000, when the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Minnesota Wild were added. The NHL is divided into 2 conferences of 15 teams, Eastern and Western conference. Within the conference there are 3 divisions of 5 teams. A team plays every team within their division (inter-Division) 6 times. They play every other conference team 4 times. From the other conference they play 3 opponents twice, the other 12 only once. [TABLE][b]Division[/b] [b]Schedule[/b] [b]Total[/b] Inter-Division 6 games x 4 opponents 24 Non-divisional, in conference 4 games x 10 opponents 40 Other Conference 1 game x 12 opponents + 2 games x 3 opponents 18[/TABLE] At the end of the regular season, the 8 top teams of each conference go through to the Stanley Cup play offs in a best-of-seven, according to this draw: 1 - 8 2 - 7 3 - 6 4 - 5 In the next round, the highest ranked team plays the lowest ranked team and the other 2 play each other. Now we are almost in the Conference finals. Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning play in the Eastern Conference final. Vancouver Canucks play either the San Jose Sharks or Detroit Red Wings (not yet determined) in the Western Conference final. The 2 Conference winners, play each other in a best-of-seven for the Stanley Cup [/QUOTE]
