Six times against Maple Waffles? Ok, we can count with 12 points already. |

In fact, I think that before the lockout, it used to be a more balanced schedule, with every team playing every other team in their conference 4 times (4 X 14=56) Then playing most, but not all, of the teams in the other conference twice a year, home and away (2 X 15=30, minus 4 games= 26, 26 + 56=82) |

Teams in the same division would face each other 8 times a year, and teams within the same conference would face each other 6 times a year if I recall correctly. They changed it a few years ago so every NHL team would play each other at least once a year, so it got scaled back to facing a division team only 6 times a year and a conference team only 4 times a year. |

For the 08 season, they changed up the schedule to allow for 6 div games, 4 conf games, and at least 1 game vs every opp conf team. |

That doesn't add up. 15 teams per conference, 5 per division. 8 X 4 (remaining teams in division)= 32. 10 remaining teams in the conference, play them 6 times that's 6 X 10=60, plus your 32 division games and that's 92 without even factoring in games vs. the other conference. |

If that was it, there would be 82 games just in the Eastern Conference. I believe it went: 8 vs. division (x4) = 32 4 vs. conference (x10) = 40 Rotational schedule in the opposite conference, where one division from the opposite conference plays in the home arena of the other team, and another division of all home games. 5 between two divisions is 10. That's 82. |
