Well, the Stanley Cup will begin in the spring and the final will take part around midsummer. The 82 matches long regular season is basically just a very long build up to the Stanley Cup spring- and summer season. 82 exhibition matches really. But that is the way the NHL is run and I hear no complaints from the spectators. So that will be it then.

Take a look at the standings, there are really competitive races in progress one month before season ends. Positioning determines who you play in the post season. To call the entire season an exhibition is a reach. Maybe in Baseball but not in Hockey.
BTW, Baseball has just announced the addition of one wild card team in each league starting this season.

Concerning the addition of another wild card team - this favors the Marlins whom are in the same divion as the Braves, Phillies and Mets.

It favors whoever has the best record, which could be a weaker team in a weaker division. In the AL, Boston would have gotten in last season.
Why teams keep hiring him in the first place is a mystery.Quote

Just as the Sabres passed them in the standings. Who did they replace him with?

After 1230 qualification matches it's now time for The Stanley Cup. And nobody seems to care ... My favourite NHL team Toronto Maple Leafs is already out, of course. Two of my favourite players used to play for them: Börje Salming and Mats Sundin. Here is a picture of how their fans dealt with this year's elimination:
