Welcome back to Some Schmuck Whines about Hockey, with your host, Some Schmuck. I posted some on Tuesday about how the geographic realignment isn't so bad and some on Friday about how the loss of rivalries is heartbreaking.

Realignment Part Two: The heartbreaking part
I started to talk about the new realignment here, and it ended pretty positively. That can't be right. Let's take a look at the reasons it sucks, starting with schedule.
On realignment (the part that doesn't suck)
In line with today's announcement that the NHL's Board of Governors has approved a crazy new realignment of the NHL, here begins a 2-part (probably) discussion of why I don't hate it and why I hate it.
In this piece, let's talk about the actual alignment of teams, which is the part I don't hate. Of course, the current alignment suffered some problems recently, as the Jets now find themselves on jets a little too often. As Gary Bettman said, "I had nothing against the existing format, and but for the move to Winnipeg we wouldn't be looking to change it."
