I feel like there is more system play in the East, with control of the neutral zone being very important. In the West you see a more offensive style of hockey, with the puck moving up and down the ice more. I quote Bob: "...the Western Conference has customarily been a more free wheeling and open ice and fast conference while the East has as a rule for the most part been a big defensive, clutch and grab, etc conference...I remember when Theoren Fleury first came to the Eastern Conference to play for the NY Rangers and he was asked the difference between playing in the East vs. The West. His answer was that there was just no room to skate....he equated it to 'skating through velcro.' " The difference in style of play is not only perception; the players feel it as well: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=4553930 (Paul Martin, Scott Gomez, Paul Stastny, and Mike Komisarek).<br><b>References : </b><br>http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=An75KFjy0sPv4WpQNjEw2F3sy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20091222160210AAhcrlB I agree with Howe and LITY, though the Washington Capitals are one notable exception.

The number of shots/game in the West is 3.8 more than the East
The PIMs in the East is greater than the West

The West also tends to have a better transition game than the East with a lot less time/gfame spent in the neutral zone for Western conference teams
