At the end of the 1967-68 season Montreal and San Diego top the two leagues and expansion Baltimore makes the playoffs.
Hull (Chicago) and Richard (Montreal) top the scoring. Los ANgeles BLade defenceman Larrant Svedberg ties Esposito and Mikita for 4th in scoring, while rookie defenceman Bobby Orr finishes 7th.
Svedberg wins the Norris and Orr wins the Calder. Hull wins MVP.
I'll be honest I adjusted Orr's injury frequency and longevity, just because who wouldn't want to see him play longer?
In the playoffs Baltimore makes it to the 2nd round but Detroit faces LA in the final giving the networks much better ratings than Portland did.
Detroit cuts through the Blades of LA and takes the cup in five.
