THE MORNING BREW NHL to see changes this season
It's 90 degrees outside in early September, why is there a hockey headline in the paper?
NEW CONFERENCES, SAME TEAMS
Thankfully, NHL training camps open up next Monday. I know it's been a long and grueling offseason for many of you, but the ice is fresh and it's time to start over. Here are the top five storylines heading into the 2013-14 season.
The biggest change this season is the switch to two conferences with four divisions replacing the old format of two conferences with three divisions. The Pacific consists of Anaheim, Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles, Phoenix, San Jose and Vancouver. The Central features Chicago, Colorado, Dallas, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis and Winnipeg. The Metropolitan includes Carolina, Columbus, New Jersey, New York Islanders, New York Rangers, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Washington. And the Atlantic is rounded out with Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Florida, Montreal, Ottawa, Tampa Bay and Toronto.
HYBRID ICING
For the duration of the preseason the
NHL will test out a new form of icing. Under the new rules, if a race to the puck occurs the play will be called dead at the faceoff dot as long as the defender is winning the race, as opposed to being the first to touch the puck. However, if the attacker is first to the faceoff dot the race will continue until the puck is touched. If all goes well the preseason players can vote to implement the rule for the 2013-14 season.
REWRITING RULE 40
As CBC's Elliotte Friedman first reported on Monday, the NHL has changed the language of Rule 48, which deals with illegal hits to the head. Previously the rule penalized "a hit resulting in contact with an opponent's头 where the head is targeted
and the principal point of contact is not permitted." The league has taken out the word "targeted," meaning the blame is now solely on the hitter. Given the league's case-by-case study of offenders, it'll be interesting to see how many suspensions are handed down
BURKE HEADS BACK WEST
When the Maple Leafs let Brian Burke go as GM last season it wasn't as shocking as his next move, joining the Calgary Flames as President of Hockey Operations. Burke gained fame after drafting the Sedin Twins as GM in Vancouver and building a Stanley Cup winner in Anaheim. He was expected to turn around the dismal Toronto Maple Leafs, but in his five years with the team the only time they made the playoffs was after Burke was let go. Calgary is banking on Burke learning from his mistakes.
No team has repeated as Stanley Cup Champions since the Detroit Red Wings in 1997-98, yet the Chicago Blackhawks have
CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS
earned the chalice twice in the last four years and it as they have no plan
to slow down. Unlike the 2010 offseason, General Manager Stan Bowman has been able to resign key players instead of dismantling a champion roster. Goaltender Corey Crawford and shot-blocking defenseman Niklas Hjalmerson were both given long-term extensions while playoff hero Bryan Bickell earned himself a four-year. $16 million deal. But after a condensed schedule last year and an extremely short offseason will the team be able to make another run for the Cup?

Eagles run over Redskins, unveil new fast-paced offense
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Just try to keep up with Michael Vick, Lesean McCoy and the Philadelphia Eagles this season. Robert Griffin III and the Washington Redskins sure couldn't.
Playing at a frenetic pace that left the Redskins bumbling and stumbling, the Eagles unleashed coach Chip Kelly's offense on the NFL and crammed 77 plays into 60 minutes of football. They had their share of miscues, of course,
but they held on for a 33-27 upset of the defending NFC East champs.
Vick, running the don't-take breath attack that won 87 percent of the time during Kelly's four years at the University of Oregon, completed 15 of 25 passes for 203 yards and two touchdowns, and he ran nine times for 56 yards and a score. McCoy had 31 carries for 184 yards, including a 34-yard TD. DeSean Jackson piled up 104 yards on seven catches.
Vick hit Jackson for a 25-yard touchdown and Brent Celek for
a 28-yard score, then found the end zone himself on a 3-yard run — and that was just the first half. It would have been a bigger rout if Vick hadn't missed three open receivers in the first quarter, or if his sideways lateral on first-and-goal at the 4 hadn't been tipped by linebacker Ryan Kerrigan and returned 75 vards for a Redskins touchdown.
Perhaps the most remarkable accomplishment by Vick, McCoy, Kelly and the Eagles: They managed to upstage Griffin. The game was played eight months to the day
since the Redskins quarterback had major knee surgery, and his return Monday was the culmination of a dedicated, high-profile rehab that included a public clash with Washington coach Mike Shanahan that barely put a dent in 'the fans' fervent adoration for their franchise player. As it turned out, they didn't have much of a chance to chant "R-G-31" — because the Redskins offense couldn't stay on the field. Their first seven plays: lost fumble by Alfred Morris, 3-yard loss by Morris, penalty for illegal shift, screen to
Morris that got back some yards, interception thrown by Griffin into triple coverage, pass dropped by fullback Darrel Young, safety that occurred when Morris bobbled a pitch in the end zone.
The Redskins were trailing 33-7 late in the third quarter before three consecutive touchdowns — the last coming with 1:14 to play — made the score more respectable. Wearing a brace on his right knee, Griffin completed 30 of 49 passes for 329 yards, but 169 yards came in the fourth after the Eagles had
taken control. He was also intercepted twice — the first multi-interception game of his career. He ran only five times for 24 yards. He reached down to touch his knee after he was slammed down by Mychal Kendricks late in the second quarter — Griffin was flagged for intentional grounding on the play — but the quarterback remained in the game.
