The owners, players, and referees all want the league to grow. That's only going to happen in the US. A Canadian team winning the Stanley Cup doesn't accomplish this. League screws Canadian teams with the schedule. Owners can lose and still make money from expansion. Refs make more calls against Canadian teams in the playoffs. Have since 1993. Fancy that.

I'm a Columbus guy and I've been saying this for years, the problem with Columbus is that it is not a desired location for free agents. That would include their own free agents, mid-level free agents that every team needs to fill roles, and of course the best free agents. Columbus is not a desired location because it does not have a positive, winning history in the NHL, and it is not seen as an exciting city for young athletes.

2009 Stanley Cup Finals per Wikipedia: "While Detroit dominated the middle of the first period, at one point firing nine straight shots, the Penguins caught a break when the officials missed a penalty for too many men when Pittsburgh had inadvertently created their own powerplay, and played with six men for nearly 30 seconds." This pressure caused Detroit to take a penalty. Pittsburgh scored on the ensuing powerplay. This was a huge swing in the momentum of the series.

@@penguinsfan251 I'm a Wings fan, and do give the Pens credit. I also don't believe in any NHL conspiracies that I can think of. That said, missing too many men on the ice for 20+ seconds is about as bad a missed call as you can get. Imagine Crosby taking a cross check to the head every second for 20 seconds, you'd rightly feel robbed to a degree. I can understand missing an instantaneous thing like a high stick because refs can't see everything and there's an element of subjectivity even if they do see it. Having too many men on the ice is fairly objective, especially when for an extended period. Its just crazy. To reiterate though.... The Pens won it, Detroit didn't respond well. That Mike Babcock was the Wings coach at the time makes that loss 1000% easier as well, if only the loss resulted in Babcock being fired.

One thing I will say is I did not like the officiating - notably the fact that they picked Chris Lee for the job - in the 2021 Vegas/Habs playoffs. There were many misscalls, Corey Perry getting highsticked in over time with blood being drawn for example. Suzuki getting punched in the face. With that said, I am a habs fan and therefore biased, though I do remember other fanbases agreeing on that! Even some vegas fans.

@@name-vi6fs I agree! Every series has blatant non calls. However, here is an interesting stat for you. Since Chris Lee started officiating at the NHL level, the habs have had a 44% overall win rate. When Lee is officiating, that win rate drops to 36%. The same source found that while Lee penalizes other teams 1% less than the average official, he penalizes the Habs almost 14% more. Im not saying that the refs were told to favor Vegas in that series, but with these numbers in mind, it does seem like an odd choice to pick Chris Lee knowing his history with the habs. Could also be an unfortunate coincidence, who knows!

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, at least outside of Edmonton, wanted to see McDavid go to the Oilers, including, probably, McDavid.

A treatise on the NHL draft process would help clear things up a lot. The NFL process is pretty straightforward, players go from a US college -> draft -> pro team (or practice squad). NHL draft is so much more layered (worldwide, drafted at any point in a player's life (it seems), and potentially years away from appearing on NHL ice, with a few exceptions of course). Also some material on the draft lottery, of course. And maybe some "why it's so different from football" would be useful. Cover even the obvious stuff. Please and thank you.

Some random thoughts: 1. For some, the big thing determining whether a Stanley Cup champion is legitimate is whether it's a team they're a fan of. 2. I was living in Atlanta for a few years for school around when the Thrashers began. A fellow student of mine, also not from the area, didn't have an NHL team he rooted for, and decided to pick the Thrashers. I was already a Habs fan, but I had to agree that the Thrashers colors and logo were quite good. I'd be happy if someone (with due permission from the current Jets) took major inspiration from the graphics elements of the Thrashers, even if it's not an Atlanta team. 3. Quebec City deserves to get the Nordiques back. As for other lost markets, Phoenix and Atlanta are so large, they will be on the NHL's radar no matter what. Hartford....was always a weird outlier in major league sports. Connecticut as a whole is sandwiched between NYC and Boston, and any league would have a hard time putting a franchise there. Sorry, Whalers. The other WHA markets? Houston is like Phoenix and Atlanta, too big of a market to ignore. The rest fall into three categories: a) already have an NHL team, b) fall into the Ohio Conundrum, or c) are Indianapolis, with no one really even trying to bring a team there. 3b. The Ohio Conundrum: Ohio has three large cities which can handle pro sports in three parts of the state. However, overall the state seems to be able to support no more than two teams in any top level pro league, and even then with a preference to putting them in Cleveland and Cincinnati (MLB, NFL). Columbus, being in the middle, is more able to get the whole state backing them. So expansion to Cleveland or Cincinnati is going to be problematic with Columbus in the league already. 4. Gambling companies know how to make money from bets without having to affect the game; they definitely don't want anyone rigging it. If it came out to them that the NHL was affecting the outcomes of games, you can bet the gambling companies would tell them "stop it or we pull our advertising".

The only favouritism you could possibly allege with any evidence is US teams over Canadian teams for business reasons and your evidence would be the controversy after Game 6 in 1994 when Mark Messier wasn't punished for assaulting Trevor Linden after the game was over and the goal debate a decade later against Calgary. I don't think there's at all a bias between individual teams necessarily. But then again, the NHL screwed everything up with the instigator rule in the 90s, leading to a lot of concussions and head injuries, so I don't think a league that incompetent with respect to that issue could rig a game.

For me, the 2015 Draft Lottery is an example where the NHL was NOT pulling the strings behind the scenes - if they were, Conner McDavid would not be an Oiler. The Sabers finished last place and both the Maple Leafs and Coyotes were lottery teams.

All things being equal, 14 Canadian teams should have made a Stanley Cup Final in the 30 years being tracked (based on the proportion of Canadian teams in every season over the years). 7 teams actually did make the final. Now leaving aside the fact that 7 Canadian teams made the finals, and NONE of them won the Cup (a statistical anomaly that bears investigation...it's highly improbable that not a single one of those teams won the league), to say that the NHL is not favoring certain teams is insanity. It may not be overt, rule-breaking kind of favoring, but the way the league has been structured DEFINITELY favors certain teams over others. And this is something that the owners have control of - they could make the league truly equitable, wherein the only real factors separating teams are the competency of their management and luck, but they have not done so, and the decision is deliberate. They want to grow the league, which means convincing more people to spend money on hockey. They don't need to convince most Canadians to spend money on hockey - it's the only game in town here (well, almost). So even owners of Canadian teams see the logic of making it easier for new teams in places where hockey is a relatively new sport, to compete, and compete without the decades of disappointment fans in Canadian markets have endured. As they say, "it's a business." The goal of team owners is not WINNING (directed at Shannon's point about why owners aren't complaining that the league is harming their ability to win). It's increasing the value of their investment. Winning certainly helps. But given revenue-sharing, LOSING can be more profitable, if the teams doing the winning are gaining a lot of new fans. As they say, "it's a business."

Yes, this is a great post! THG’s take is a little too broadly defined and really misses the nuance of what the NHL would want. The NHL doesn’t care per-say about teams that are already money-makers-it’s the ones that COULD be big money-makers but aren’t that are the problem. Obviously, the NHL will throw Toronto or the Penguins or whoever a bone every now and again, but their main goal is to expand into untapped markets.

Conceptually, I agree with most of this. But there are some practical questions... Why, if the league is favoring some teams over others, why did Edmonton win the 1st pick in the 2015 draft (and got McDavid) instead of the Coyotes? Why has one of the strongest southern hockey markets (Tampa, especially given its size) been given 3 opportunities to win a cup (winning 2)? Especially after making it to the ECF in '18 and having the 2nd or 3rd best regular season in NHL history in '19? Why wasn't Carolina, Anaheim, or Florida given that opportunity?

@VoIcanoman
@VoIcanoman Ай бұрын
Are you people just ignoring everything I said, or are you unable to read? Of course the league does not overtly favour teams. There aren't plans in place for referees to go easier on some teams than others, or for them to allow some teams to get away with cap overages that other teams cannot. The problem is in the structure itself. The league COULD have a bylaw that adjusts a team's cap ceiling based on the local state/provincial income tax and cost of living, ensuring that teams in California or Canada don't have to pay players an extra 10-20% a year to gain their services (when compared to teams from Florida or Texas). The league COULD have rules in place that enable teams to "bid" on new UFAs, so that regions which are more desirable as destinations for players aren't naturally going to draw all of the best players, who are willing to take a pay cut to play there. There are any number of ways in which the league enables and encourages a disparity between teams, all the while publicly claiming that they are interested in parity. And because disparity happens to be profitable for all owners, teams that are screwed over tend not to complain, as winning was never the owners' goal. Profit is their overarching goal. And making things fair and equal for all teams is not profitable. They won't go and put their finger on the scale to affect the integrity of the game, directly screwing over teams. But they will allow the conditions of the market to do the exact same thing, all the while denying that they could do anything about it, as they continue to rake in the cash. I just wish they were honest about it.

@VoIcanoman I can't explain for Western Canada or Ottawa. But as a Bruins fan in southern New England (where we have our fair share of taxes), I haven't heard of a story where taxes got in the way of the B's signing a player. The Bruins, when they can't sign guys, can't because they've overpaid other players on the roster (like Hampus Lindholm who at $6.5 million is now a 2nd pair d-man or Tuukka previously). In Toronto, they are playing with 4 guys and a rotating cast of characters. Tampa and Florida have won cups because they are deeper teams that can absorb and play with physicality. Their key players are accountable and set the identity (Stamkos, Hedman, Barkov, Tkachuk). Those players also show up when it matters. That being said--I have heard players appreciate playing in the states because they don't feel like 'they're in a fish bowl' with all eyes looking on them. Players can go to a bar in Ft. Lauderdale or Vegas and not be noticed by fans. That comfort might be worth something, but I think it's below AAV, years of contract (job security), and role.

Speaking as a Preds STH of 24 years now, I will say that the mm offsides call on Forsberg, in which his skate lifted off the ice hovering over the blue line on Subban's goal in Game 1 changed the momentum...now a legal play...coupled with the early whistle in Game 6 on the grandest stage of hockey. What made it infuriating was that there was a game earlier that season whereby an early whistle on a goal was overturned and counted...something we saw again within the past few years in a regular season PIT game, no less, against the Sharks...if memory serves. Add to it the tantrum of a bottle-throwing Crosby going unpenalized in that series and voila. Meanwhile, Neal is playing with a broken hand, you're centering Sissons on the top line vs Crosby due to injuries to Joey and Fisher, and yet taking it to the Pens while Fiala was out with a fractured femur. That team was on a magical run. Do I think the league had a hand in the outcome? No, but I do think an egregious referee error went uncorrected in a SCF elimination game. Did I lose respect for Sydney Crosby with the deferential treatment shown to him, yes; although, I was among many rooting for him in the years prior, especially during the 2008 and 2009 series vs a hated rival in DET.

Why? New Jersey is in a big market and hadn’t really had much success until then. The NHL was likely ecstatic when NJ won those cups. THG’s line of reasoning for NJ is odd. No one spoke out about NJ because everyone knew they were just simply that good of a team. They went through the motions and built themselves a cup-winning roster, just like any other team. The problem was never “oh, American teams are winning”, it’s been the NHL giving favored teams little helping hands now and again.

What's funny about few people complaining that the Devils wins were rigged is that, if you were going to make a logical case for it, their wins are the ones with the most "evidence" for the argument. There was no bigger benefactor of the _Dead Puck Era_ than Brodeur and the Devils. Now, the league wasn't ignoring infractions on behalf of the Devils, or only in the Devils favor. And there was nothing preventing other teams from following their lead, which other teams did. But the Devils were *the* team where the roster and management went, *"Hey, if the refs are going to let everyone straight up tackle each other, let's go all in, from roster construction to strategy."*

It’s always interesting as a Canucks fan when we look back at 2011. Because it 2011 finals seems like the most insane, controversial, toxic, well-known and impactful finals in the last 20 years. But of course, that perception is wildly biased and influenced by being in Vancouver. For a long time I assumed that general experience (minus the rioting) was the standard in the cup finals, and I was only hyper aware of it in 2011 because I was a fan of one of the teams. But every time any long term retrospective video from any channel looks back at Stanley Cup Final Series, there’s always this way that people talk about it. It’s never “just another year”, the year 2011 just holds some sort of weight here. Idk, am I crazy thinking that the 2011 SCF was way more widely known and impactful than it actually is?

Income tax appears to be a major factor in Stanley cup teams. Canadian teams have higher income taxes and there have been no winners and few finalists even from Canada. Meanwhile Florida, Nevada and TN all have had lots of finals appearances with little to no state income tax. Florida TN and Nevada all basically the lowest income tax of any states that have major league sports. The other states as lows or lower dont have major league level cities. Those states have 8 finals appearances in the last 8 years. Not a total coincidence in my opinion, especially when coupled with Canadian teams lack of success. Of course it could just be weather. They all have that in common too.

Sadly, that may or may not have some truth with the Bettman.. but the reality is.. After the MTL cup.. the money in game, moreso in canada dried up. Yeah, it's canada's game (or religion).. but they have 1/4 of the teams.. an 0% of the championships since 93...

Not going to lie, as a Panthers fan, if the league brings back the Thrashers, I would actually love that. I really don't know if it's the wacky jerseys, or if it's the fact that Kovalchuk used to dominate in such a horrid team, I just really, really want to see them back. And I honestly believe that the Thrashers fit Atlanta way more than the Flames did in the 1970s. Another team I would love to see returning is the Nordiques. Back in the 1980s, there was this huge nationalistic pride in being a Quebec fan, simply because of the whole Quebecois identity, and "screw those damned English-speaking Montreal fans", but other than that, everything about the Nordiques spelt class. The jerseys were perhaps the most beautiful ever on the ice, the logo was cool and it's such a damn shame that if they hadn't moved in 1996, well, probably Roy wouldn't have been in net, but I guess they could have won the Stanley Cup either way, but not beating the Panthers in a sweep.

As an admitted biased Devils fanboy, I take umbrage with Colorado winning the Cup over NJ in 2001. The rumored reason(s) being that the NHL loved Roy more than Marty and didn't want Marty getting a Cup win over the favored Roy.... Supposedly at least. The other reason was the league wanting a feel-good story with Ray Bourque finally winning a Cup after his trade to Boston. Obviously that's all B.S., but it's fun to imagine the league has it out for your team. Then there's also Giguere getting the Conn Smythe over Marty in 2003, even though Marty shutout Anaheim three times in that series and outplayed Giguere in the Finals. Again, the league supposedly showed it's hate for NJ. But in the end, the Devils still won the bigger prize, so once again... B.S.
