Conference A
Anaheim
Calgary
Colorado
Edmonton
Los Angeles
Phoenix
San Jose
Vancouver
Conference B
Chicago
Columbus
Dallas
Detroit
Minnesota
Nashville
St. Louis
Winnipeg
Conference C
Boston
Buffalo
Florida
Montreal
Ottawa
Tampa Bay
Toronto
Conference D
Carolina
New Jersey
NY Islanders
NY Rangers
Philadelphia
Pittsburgh
Washington
The proposed new conferences would be arranged to accommodate both geographic proximity as well as established rivalries.
Anyone else think it's a little weird that the NHL based these conferences based on geography, but then put Toronto, Ottawa and Buffalo in the same conference as Tampa and Florida? While there is an entire conference of teams in between them.
Or maybe there's just some big rivalries that I don't know about.
