OT: "The Labatt Blue Inter-Season Hockey Cup"


PTS

Recommended Posts

OK, when hockey ever gets back to playing, I have an idea I wish the league would consider. Being a soccer fan, many leagues around the world have Cup games during the season. In some leagues, the inter-season Cup is the biggest prize, more so than winning the league. In other league's it's just a way to keep fan interest up during the long season.

 

Here's how it would work.

 

We'll call it "The Labatt Cup" as the competition would be named for the main sponsor. ($$$ for the league it didn't have before.) The competition is a knock out tournament and the first few rounds would be all the minor league teams playing each other. At one stage (3rd or 4th round) the NHL teams would join in. It's a one game knock out tournament. Home team is randomly picked. Usually the Championship game is played at a neutral site. The tournament starts with the minor league teams at the start of the hockey season. I'd envision having this end sometime in late January.

 

What do you think?
