Three teams from the previous season found new homes: The Los Angeles Sharks moved to Detroit and became the Michigan Stags, the Jersey Knights went West and became the San Diego Mariners, and the Whalers left Boston for temporary digs in Springfield, then to their new permanent home in Hartford. The fourteen teams were placed into three divisions. The Canadian Division featured Edmonton, Québec, Toronto, Vancouver and Winnipeg; the Eastern Division included Chicago, Cleveland, Indianapolis and New England, while Houston, Michigan, Minnesota, Phoenix and San Diego comprised the Western Division. Most Valuable Player Rookie of the Year Gordie Howe Trophy Lou Kaplan Trophy Keeping the 78-game season, each team played a balanced schedule, playing Bobby Hull Anders Hedberg each of the other thirteen teams six times, three home and three away. The Winnipeg Winnipeg playoffs admitted the top two teams from each of the three divisions, plus two wild-card spots based on points. This format had its faults: Cleveland, with 73 points and a second-place finish in the weak Eastern Division, made the playoffs, while Winnipeg (81 points, 3rd place in the Canadian Division), Vancouver and Edmonton (76 points each, 4th-place tie in the Canadian Division) missed the playoffs. The Western Division was the strongest.
