Damn! That would make the SE a much stronger division, in terms of competition between the Wings, Caps, and Lightning. But why the Southeast? In terms of geographic location Detroit isn't really SE.

No, Winnipeg isn't. Slipped my mind there. We have to know there's gonna be at least a couple teams moving around as a result of the Thrashers moving to Winnipeg. But Detroit to the SE, and Winnipeg to the Central? That's lame. I pretty much agree with this post on Puck Daddy. All they need to do is put the Jets in the Pacific, move the Stars to the Central, and move Nashville to the SE. Puts 3 teams in their proper division and solves the realignment problem.
