I guess what I am embracing is that the regular season is meant to qualify for the playoff. Kind of like in college, if you get to pick your electives, most people didn’t take Latin or Biomechanics.

I guess I’m saying I see where the puck is moving, I’m skating that way. Perhaps, things will change, but I think it’s going the NCAA hoops model…it’s all about the playoff…don’t get to ambitious in the regular season, there’s limited (little) upside to that, imho

God bless & Go Irish! 🍀
