I was reading something online a while back that made the most sense I've seen in a long time. It's time to redue the NHL scheduling. Instead of the current policy where a team doesnt' play every team in the league, they proposed this idea: No more divisions. Make it 2 conferences, 15 teams a conference. To keep the time frames the same, take away two-four preseason games, add them to the regular season part of the schedule. The schedule would go something like this: Each team will play each team in their conference 4 times (2 away, 2 home), bringing the season total to 56. Plus you would play each team in the other coference twice (1 home, 1 away), bringing th total to 86. If you only take two from the preseason, two games could be added in almost anywhere for most teams. Furthermore, it would be the top 8 teams per conference to make it, none of the division leaders get the top three spots, even if they are not the top three in points. What do y'all think about this one?
