So the Pacific and Midwest will have to take one more trip (2 more road games) out east, than the East teams have to travel out west.
Detroit finally gets its wish. Toronto fans and mainly media bitched and complained for years about playing in the West, playing Montreal/Ottawa only twice a year, and late games on road trips, (except for spring 1993 when there was a couple days when it looked like they could play MTL in the SC Final), and finally got their wish 15 years ago.
I thought at the time, it was promised to Detroit that they would be the next move to re-ignite regional rivalries, get the better travel sked etc etc, and sure enough...
