Did the 3 conference proposal ever get any legs?
Northeast
Boston
Buffalo
Montreal
New Jersey
New York Islanders
New York Rangers
Ottawa
Philadelphia
Pittsburgh
Toronto
Central/Southeast
Carolina
Chicago
Columbus
Dallas
Detroit
Florida
Nashville
St. Louis
Tampa Bay
Washington
West
Anaheim
Calgary
Colorado
Edmonton
Los Angeles
Minnesota
Phoenix
San Jose
Vancouver
Winnipeg
Then top 4 from each conference make the playoffs, plus 4 wildcards... sorting out who plays who would probably have to be set up based on points.
For expansion/relocation, Phoenix to Seattle keeps that conference the same. Adding Markham & QC would cause issues I suppose though.
