from Ryan Kennedy of The Hockey News,
I’m officially dubbing it the NorthBeast Division.
True, we’re only looking at one serious Stanley Cup contender coming out of the section (that being the Boston Bruins), while even a third playoff entry is a dicey proposition. But oh, we’ll have a lot of fun watching the carnage nonetheless.
Think about it: Boston will trot out Milan Lucic, Zdeno Chara, Mark Stuart and Shawn Thornton for every NorthBeast matchup. Toronto will counter with Luke Schenn and new bruisers Colton Orr, Garnet Exelby, Francois Beauchemin and transplanted Hab Mike Komisarek, thus preserving the Lucic-Komisarek storyline.
