NHL Division Primer: The Metro

In just a couple of years the Metropolitan division (henceforth referred to at "the Metro") has gone from a joke, to one of the best in the league. It has the potential to send five teams to the playoffs this year, and any one of those five could realistically take the Metro crown.

The New York Rangers were the best team in the league last year, and have remained largely intact for 2015. Pittsburgh and Washington both made some suave offseason moves to keep them near the top of the division, but don't sleep on the upstart Islanders or Blue Jackets.
