I don’t think I watched one game outside the Northern Division this year.

You may be pleasantly surprised by how good some of the hockey is outside of the Canadian division. The Flames may be the least entertaining team to watch in the NHL but it's not like Leafs games have been entertaining as they have been largely going through the motions playing just good enough to stay atop the worst division in hockey. The Canadian teams in general are not the greatest examples of the NHL product at least this season. Ottawa is rebuilding, the Canucks are almost as unwatchable as the Flames, nobody cars about the Jets, Habs are bad team, Oilers are a bad team with two really good players, and the Leafs are a team of big names that don't make for a great mix. In particular I have found games from the Central and Eastern division to be considerably more entertaining and better hockey. Higher skilled and faster paced than what fans that have exclusively watching the Canadian division may be used to.
