>Hockey now extended their seasons to 84
Why is /sp/ filled with football threads, but not hockey? Hockey is now the top of the sports league.

So … against whom does everyone play? Shouldn’t there be some parity? It can’t be a fair comparison unless everyone plays the same opponents, with the same amount. So if you have 32 teams in the league, you‘d kind of expect everyone to have 31x2 or maybe 31x3 games. Or maybe 31x2 + some additional division stuff.
How do they get to 82 and now 84?
And as a Yuropeon, I don’t get it anyway: more than 80 games to qualify for the actual tournament. Win the regular season and you get a handshake, wow. Nobody cares. Half the teams qualify for the playoffs, and the playoffs are the only thing people care about. It doesn’t make sense

in what way?

>It can’t be a fair comparison
it's not
you play your division the most [4 or 5]
then conference thrice
then the other conference twice

Hockey autists never leave their general

>what are conferences and divisions

Any league where every team does not face everyother team the same amount of times is invalid. NA sports are fucked from the very start

>only 60 days of summer vacations
>getting under paid
Being a Hockey player is suffering.
