I can't wait until we win the Metropolitan division. It'll make all those SE Division banners seem less ridiculous.

Pretty much guarantees that the next time the Caps make the payoffs they'll play the Rangers in the first round. :boredom:

Playing a team a bunch of times over and over again in the playoffs is supposed to create rivalries. I don't feel like that's happened with the Rangers, only staleness.

nothing creates rivalries like playing your division foes first come the loffs

They should have done that when they reorganized last time.

Just when I thought Legends and Leaders would forever be the worst division names in US sports the NHL gives us Metropolitan division. Give me back Southeast, please.

It has never been more clear to me that the NHL is run by a bunch of ****.

I just don't think this Caps group has been a rivalry material yet.

I feel like the personalities just haven't mashed up. Pen's and Caps have been great together because you've got Ovi vs. Crosby, you can't really have Ovi vs. The King as a good battle.

Only way Rangers becomes a big rival is if Nash goes off or Holtby suddenly goes God Mode and is able to keep up with the King consistently.

Just an FYI for the board, my wife and I are expecting a little one November 30, so I will likely be selling a bunch of my tickets for games around then. So keep your eyes out if interested.

Big time congratulations. And if this is your 1st child take in and enjoy the birth. Hands down the coolest and most special event I have ever witnessed. Was even better the 2nd time.
