More early game times and more regional rivalries are why the the Detroit Red Wings came out in full support Monday for the four-conference realignment.

The owners approved of the four-conference realignment on Monday. Detroit is in "Conference B" with Chicago, Columbus, Dallas, Minnesota, Nashville, St. Louis and Winnipeg.

"I’m so happy. It’s a dream come true for the Detroit Red Wings," club senior vice president Jimmy Devellano told MLive.com. "For our fans, there will be far fewer games starting at 10:40 (p.m.), especially come playoff time. I like that for our fans and TV ratings.
