That's a thing of the past. This is the Nu-NHL. For better or worse, I don't think O6 games are something worth marketing. For that matter, most of the divisional opponents of the Wings are "ho-hum" games as well. But in other divisions, it is pretty heated and closely contested. I don't want to count our chickens before they hatch, but I don't see a serious threat from anyone in our division to take the thrown away. In an ideal situation in my eyes, I'd like to see more matchups (at least one game each) against Eastern Conference opponents. Original Six games? That’s a thing of the past. This is the Nu-NHL.

Personally, I'd rather see them play more of the original six teams. I only saw the Maples Leafs on there once, but correct me if I'm wrong.
