There are definitely pros and cons to this. I'm actually shocked they didn't just switch Winnepeg in for Columbus or Detroit.

The major pro is there will be more rivalry games in the playoffs. That is a win for everyone. Plus every team travelling to every city at least once again is going to be great. The current rotating format was bullshit.

The only major con is that teams can have a lot of points and still miss the playoffs just by being in a tough division. The parity that exists now might not be in play starting next year.

Either way, I like it for the most part.

while i like the change, i feel it screws my Isles. Having to play the 30 games of their schedule against NYR, WAS, PITT, NJ, and PHI is tough...double tough.
