At the bottom of this page, this article was talking about a "sensible and cost-saving move" that had the approval of nearly league official except Harold Ballard. Apparently, there was some proposal that the league wanted to move Toronto to the Smythe division and Los Angeles to the Norris, according to the article. Was there any truth to this? And how is this sensible and cost-saving? The only way this could make any sense would be that it would make the Smythe an all-Canadian division and the Norris all-American.
