TSN: What do you think about the whole canadian division?

[Golden_Jet]

Why does a Sens fan spend so much time on the Leafs forum.? Honestly just wondering?

Parts of family are Leafs fans.

That makes sense.

Toronto has a better chance of making the playoffs now....1 Team less in this Div......

This may make leaf management look good...no matter still 1 less team with the top 4 making it....Dubas can count he is feeling it already..Playoffs...now if the leafs blow it..oh boy! i can hear it now

Two of those were in OT/SO, and Montreal was playing rested against Toronto (backup goalies) on back-ends of back to backs.

Plus Toronto had to travel the night before every time, twice from the opposite side of the continent, once Columbus. Doubt Montreal gets served such a platter every single time this year.

It wasn’t traveling from the other side of the Continent, they played teams from the other side of the continent, but the games were in Toronto, the night before, except for the Columbus game, and that game was the second game of the year, so they were not tired from a long season yet.

Not sure if this has been talked about, if so, I apologize.

Anyway, since no fans are allowed in buildings and TV ratings are essentially the be all and end all this year, what time will games be played?

Selfishly, I'd like to see all games involving Toronto/Montreal etc. played at 7 or 8 EST, even when on the West Coast.

Agree on start time, but likely not happening, maybe on a Saturday night, but then they would likely show Sens/habs at 7, since all games are vs CDN teams, and show Leafs vs west at 10.
Could also see afternoon games on Saturday I guess, Hockey day in Canada every Saturday.

When I looked at the schedule before it looked like they were away in SJ and ANA.

Another reason is simply for the fact that the Edmonton/Vancouver etc. fans will lose their collective minds, as they do on Toronto's annual West Coast trip.

 

[Warden of the North]

I hope the NHL takes advantage of weekend afternoon games. I want 10 hours of hockey both days of the weekend

Has a schedule been released yet?

teams have a tentative one

Better check again, if you still think that is the case.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

IDK if this has already been posted, but Edmonton is going to be without Klefbolm for the 2020-2021 season. That should work in our favour, considering he is arguably their top defenseman and their defense is already suspect as it is.

 

[Gabriel426]

Would it be 10 Vs Sens, 10 Vs Habs and the rest 9 games or would it different?

 

[Kiwi]

I'd imagine teams are going to get pretty sick of one another if they are playing each other that often over a small timeframe, things might get a little spicy as the season progresses

I definitely know one thing, hfboards is going to be brutal, fans of those other Canadian teams don't like us in a normal season let alone this season

 

[Wafflewhipper]

This all Canadian division means one thing to me. Bragging rights! Thats it,Thats all. I don’t care who’s best and I don’t care about anything but coming out on top. That can be by a single point. Just win it
