Why did the red wings get put into the East ?

Why did the red wings get put into thr East ?

As far as points go they'd be out of the playoffs in the West as well.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I rather be where we are then say Chicago. Nice being together with all but one original 6.

To me, the old Norris Division rivalries or the 80s and 90s carry more gravitas than the so-called "Original Six" ... Blues, Leafs, North Stars, Blackhawks, even the Jets ... they were great rivalries.

Those geo-centric divisions could be recreated for virtually a cup of coffee and a few cigars.

Technically correct
But

Probably not. As the Red Wings schedule would be a lot weaker hence the reason I posted
That the west has weaker competition.

Can't assume that the DRW would have the same record in the Western Conference. I think that they'd have more points.

Can't assume anything. Regardless, it's mute.

 

[Mitchrapp]

2-0 after one. Larkin and Seider.

 

[biggunsbob]

Wings lead 4-2 after two but have blown the lead. 4-4 with four minutes left.

I can?t watch it. Not sure what package it?s on.

 

[biggunsbob]

Sigh
According to Gamecast Oilers PP with 3 minutes let.
Minute left on PP oilers with time out.
7 seconds left still 4-4.

 

[biggunsbob]

Overtime 4-4.

 

[biggunsbob]

Ticker makes it seem oilers are skating circles around Detroit. We never seem to have the puck.

Game heading to a shootout

 

[biggunsbob]

Raymond not available for shootout because of injury sadly.

 

[biggunsbob]

Espn ticker is horrible for shootouts.

 

[Mitchrapp]

SO win, yes yes yes.

 

[biggunsbob]

Wings win a Marathon Shootout!

I knew when it was happening McDavid would get one in the SO. Glad we were able to comeback after that..
