The NHL’s Metropolitan Division was formed in 1993 as part of a league realignment. Its predecessor was the Patrick Division. It was known as the Atlantic Division for its first 19 seasons until the 2013 league realignment, when it adopted its current name and added three teams.

This is the only division in the league based entirely in the United States.

The NHL's Atlantic Division was formed in 1993 as part of the Eastern Conference in a league realignment. Its predecessor was the Adams Division. It was known as the Northeast Division for its first 19 seasons (not including the cancelled 2004–05 season) until the 2013 league realignment, when it adopted its current name and then added three teams.

Although none of the division’s members won the Stanley Cup following the 1993 realignment until the Boston Bruins' title in 2011, its members account for a combined 55 Stanley Cup championships (24 by Montreal, 13 by Toronto, 11 by Detroit, 6 by Boston, and 1 by Tampa Bay), which is the most combined championships of any division in the league. In 2012, the Boston Bruins became the first team in the division to win consecutive division titles.

Post-season history

The Canadiens–Senators rivalry is a hockey rivalry between the Montreal Canadiens and Ottawa Senators of the National Hockey League. This rivalry stems from the fact that the two teams are based 124 miles apart along Highway 40 in Quebec and Highway 417 in Ontario, and the long history of hockey games played between teams from the two cities. The two teams have been in the same division (currently the Atlantic Division) ever since the Senators debuted in 1992.

Early History

[edit]

The Canadiens and the Ottawa Hockey Club played on the first evening in NHL history. It was widely thought to be the first ever NHL game, but it was later found out that the puck dropped earlier in the Montreal Wanderers' home game against the Toronto Hockey Club.[1] During the original Senators' time in the NHL, the team won four Stanley Cups while the Canadiens won three. It was Ottawa, however, who later relocated to St. Louis to become the Eagles after the 1933–34 season, and later folded, ending the rivalry between Montreal and Ottawa for 58 years.

1990s and 2000s
