In my last blog i did a draft featuring all of the greatest NHL players of all time;
in this blog i will be doing a simulation of 3 seasons using those rosters and i will also be making some trades as well.
Since there are only 21 teams in the league, there will only be 4 divisions, each with 5 teams in it and one with 6.
There is one change in the alignment of the divisions; the Minnesota North Stars are playing in the Smythe division instead of the Norris division.
