Thoughts: 2 Games per Week

[Drew]

If we do our regular one week matchups we can do a 10 game season which is not too bad.

Looks like with three weeks of playoffs we would be able to get in 11 games. With the Stanley Cup finals being 9 days long for added intensity. This would be if we changed our playoffs a bit. If not this would be the same but minus 1 game to make room for regular playoffs.
Last season we had 23 games in our season with our final being 6 days long.

Double schedule would make for 22 games or 20 games depending on schedule we choose.

Here is what the standings were like after 10 weeks. Would having double games changed this anymore? Would they have looked much like the final standings? (BOTH ATTACHED BELOW)

Looking at these results (and considering that we are using a top 8 cut off instead of a top 12 cut off), the play off result would of differed by two teams, which is a huge difference. The top 5 teams remained the top 5 teams, and obviously four out of those five made up our top 4 last season.

If you look at the four teams that make up the difference, here are their second half records:

Dallas 5-7
Los Angeles 4-8
Boston 8-5
Colorado 8-5

The second half of the season made a HUGE difference between who would of made the play offs in a 8 team cut off, as Boston and Colorado were able to sneak in with a moderately good record while LA and Dallas faltered in the end.

I still feel that playing two games per week would be terrible, as not only would a terrible week give a team 2 losses, but a 130 pt week would most definitely give another team a "free" four points instead of just two.

I say we have an 11 game season with a 3 week play off.

It would be like the 1st year we held this league, it was only a half season, but I know we didn't hold playoffs that season either!

Definitely crowning a champ via playoffs, just depends on what we do.

Sorry still confused because I put many options in my thing, I put 10 or 11 game schedule depending on how we wish to run playoffs or a double schedule with the two different playoff options.

me too. haha

I like the 11 game regular season and 3 week playoff with top 8 getting in. (1vs8, 2vs7, 3vs6 and 4vs5)

Should I wait for a final decision or make a 11 game schedule?
