5 of the top 6 teams are from out of the West.

[BigDaddyLurch]

The east has no cup contders outside of Florida and Tampa, and hasn't in years.

The west has seen 3-5 legit cup contenders every year in that span

Not sure if stupidity or satire.

 

[Rants Mulliniks]

The Leafs wouldn’t make the playoffs in the West.

Before you spaz, imagine hearing this horse **** in reverse for the past half decade.

Leafs love playing the West. Like a recipe for what ails ya.

 

[Sypher04]

If you rank the league by points percentage, Washington and Toronto are both top 5, but 6 out of top 8 are Western teams.

Not how it works. This is the same as the Atlantic the last 7 years. All those cup contenders will eliminate each other in the first 2 rounds. First year I can remember the Atlantic doesn't have the clear cup favorite.

Time to get your memory checked

San Jose, Chicago, and Nashville are in the west

I mean in recent memory obviously. The Atlantic has had the clear cup favorites for at least the last 7 years

Who are your contenders?

CAR and NYR are frauds. The shitty Islanders gave Tampa their hardest series during the cup wins. And nobody else has made it past the 2nd rd.

Interesting. This same discussion was had when Chicago and LA were winning all of the cups. Only flip the conferences.

Not really the same thing. In LA/CHI's 4 years of exchanging cups, either team could've won.

What we're seeing here was 3 years where Tampa was far and away the best team in the east, and now year 3 where Florida likely is
