I haven't seen anyone mention this but every team should have 4 games played if I'm not mistaken. Most do, however...NYR, Bos, Nash, Calgary all have just 3 games.

Pitt, Col have 5 games. Probably just a scheduling oversight but this can be corrected by matching up the schedule for week 1 for those team's affected.

Solution 1 matchup NYR v. BOS & Nash v.Calgary
Solution 1a Delete Pit v. Col matchup.

This should balance out week one.

I think everyone has 82 games total.

Could be wrong but it's probably because we have an uneven number of teams in the league this year. Some weeks some team will be stuck with an odd number of games is my guess.

Yeah I think you're right. Haven't heard from mods on this, but I looked ahead and there are weeks that my team's have 3 games etc.

With the odd number of team's, if everyone has 82 games played by years end, that's some A1 scheduling. It's hard getting it to even out when there is an even number of team's. I've built schedules for baseball and it's tedius work.

Kudos and bravo if it is by design.

Having looked over my team's schedule I figured it was due to the odd number of teams in the league as Halo mentioned.
Some teams had 3 matchups while others had 5. It should even out.

My Calgary Flames have a 82 game regular season schedule this year.

Should be 82 games for all FNHL teams in 2017-18.
Fantrax has a their math genius program all that behind the curtain. I click a few buttons and it's done.

That's awesome! I wonder if it takes into account division and conference bias or if it creates a balanced schedule regardless of divisions etc.

Either way its a great tool and upgrade for Fantrax. Inputting 160 game schedule for 30 baseball teams took up a lot of time and was easy to overlook mistakes but once entered it would automatically carry it to future seasons.

Thanks for the explanation here.
