ad rivalries back in the day. This coming year they do NOT MEET A SINGLE TIME!!!! As a kid and a frequent fan attending Amerks games,Blackhawks #88 Patrick Kane Authentic Black Jersey, I used to say, i will go see anyone but Hershey. Why? Because we played them so often and I have personally seen them many times. But now its just crazy. And it turns out that all teams will not play 14 other teams a single time. Obvious reason is to save money on travel. The league is now far bigger and you have some reallly long distances. Chicago to San Antonio to St Johns or Providence as an example. I expect the Rochester team to be loaded by next year given all the Sabres picks and many will wind up in Rochester. Maybe that next great goalie will be coming? Nobody saw Hasek coming. Except Buffalo

For those of you who feel this is weighted to heavily to the Al Arbour ran team of the eighties, let me just say, it has been over a quarter of a century since the Isles last won a division title, and over twenty years since they last won a playoff series. I could have put the drafting of Tavares in here, but he hasnt really done much so far as getting the team over the top. Here is my list of greatest Isles moments in history:BOSSY SCORES 50 IN 50 WITH 1:29 TO GOMaurice the Rocket Richard had been the only player in history with 50 goals in 50 games until Mike Bossy burst onto the scene, and matched his total in 1981.
