Did someone make a Leafs joke yet?
The Leafs should put one up for finally winning a series. Booo-yah!

Exactly, i edited my post btw.It’s not for seeding. The seeding would be the same whether or not the trophy itself exists.
I think there is a 48 year gap in MSG for the Rangers finishing first in a 6 team league or 5 team Patrick division…1942-1990. That may be more embarrassingMontreal and Toronto have lots of banners for winning a 6 team division in the rafters.
Personally as an 1986 born person, i dont give much weight to anything in the O6 era. The rangers have been the far more successful franchise than both the Canadians and Maple Leafs in the modern era, which i think holds more weight than success in the O6 era. Players are better today, coaching is better and the game is more of a science today than in the past.I think there is a 48 year gap in MSG for the Rangers finishing first in a 6 team league or 5 team Patrick division…1942-1990.

It's brutal.Preds fans right now:
Yes really.
It’ll even out in the end. It’s an 82 game schedule. No one wins or loses in OctoberIt's brutal.
I'm thinking most of hockey fans, including me, saw Preds as a well built, managed and coached team. Decent team with great additions turning into a pile of the shit is a big surprise.
Unless your definition of modern era is super narrow this just doesn't track.Yes really.
Division championships are more accepted than regular season championships in terms of wording. You actually win something tangible for winning a division, you get home ice. You dont win anything for being “regular season champions” just a trophy that no players actually wants to win, and it usually a curse as most “regular season champions” dont fair well in the playoffs. Regular season championships is tack because no one wins the regular season. It’s for seeding for the playoffs which are the championships of the NHL. I have no issue with banners, i have issue with ‘regular season champions” on banners.
*Ive never been to Edmonton, I live in Ottawa.
Man I love your postsFans should get a banner if they waste their time watching every regular season game.
Something that’s happened 8 times in 38 years and the last time it happened was over a decade ago. Usually “regular season champions” dont win Stanley cups, the real championship of the NHL. So sure, lets call them “champions” for winning the regular season.Um, you guarantee yourself home ice in every round, including the finals if you make it. Something you don't get if you are the division winner.
This is so funny coming from you.Yea it's pretty obvious why it says it, OP trolling as usual though.
Completely disregarding what I said you to. Ok.Something that’s happened 8 times in 38 years and the last time it happened was over a decade ago.

This isn’t soccer.
I think it points how stupid it is to call it “regular season champions”Completely disregarding what I said you to. Ok.
Or calling it American Football in the first place...not as bad as calling the Super Bowl winner, "World Champions" lol
It seems to me an accomplishment worthy of a banner. It is, after all, a NHL championship trophy...on par with the Stanley Cup and more prestigious than the Prince of Wales Trophy and Campbell Bowl awarded for playoff conference championships.
Lots of teams are unworthy. They fail to win. They are never regular season champions. They are never the regular season runner-up. They are never Stanley Cup champions. They are never Stanley Cup finalists. They simply embrace their putrid mediocrity. Those are the pretenders deserving of scorn and mockery.
Only 8 presidents trophy winners have won the cup in the last 38 years, Well 39 now. The last time was over a decade ago.It seems to me an accomplishment worthy of a banner. It is, after all, a NHL championship trophy...on par with the Stanley Cup and more prestigious than the Prince of Wales Trophy and Campbell Bowl awarded for playoff conference championships.
