NHL regular season background
The NHL provides a wonderful opportunity to catch top-class ice hockey as each team in the league plays 82 regular season games. With four divisions separated geographically, there are games taking place across the country throughout the regular season. Whether you choose the Pacific, Central, Atlantic, or Metropolitan Division you are sure to get a high-intensity game played out in front of a passionate and boisterous crowd. Over the course of the regular season, the teams go head to head with each other and the team finishing with the most points in each division takes home the title of division champions. This all leads to the Stanley Cup playoffs, which start in April and get ice hockey's most prestigious elimination tournament underway. Eight teams from each conference qualify for the playoffs and battle it out until only one team leaves with the iconic trophy.
The fiercest NHL rivalries
The NHL spans the width of North America with teams located as far south as Florida and also dotted along both the east and west coasts of the USA and Canada. This spread of teams leads to some great rivalries as the franchises jostle for supremacy, with the Campbell Bowl, the trophy awarded to the Western Conference champions often shared between the Chicago Blackhawks, the Edmonton Oilers, the Detroit Red Wings, and the Philadelphia Flyers. In the Eastern Conference, the Prince of Wales Trophy is dominated by the Montreal Canadiens with the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings playing catch up.
