I’ve won the Presidents Trophy by a pretty significant margin 3 years running, but every year I’ve gotten snared by Lady Luck in a one-week playoff matchup. There are only a few options for constructing the length of each playoff matchup, and I’ve been forced to choose between including the last week of the regular season to get at least a two-week final (when many all-stars are being rested) and omitting the final week (with all rounds being a standard one-week matchup).
Obviously, any NHL team (or fantasy team) can beat any other team in any given matchup, thus the NHL playoffs are a best-of-7 series to increase the likelihood that the better team wins. In my 12 team league (6 make the playoffs) I didn’t think it was asking for very much to have:-Round 1: 1st and 2nd place get a bye, and the other 4 teams play a one-week matchup.
-Semifinals and finals are two weeks each.
-Season ends 1 week before the NHL regular season.(Or just more customizability for playoff matchup length in general)

If this isn’t added this season, I’m taking my league to Fantraxx. Period.
I’ve been objectively the best team in my league 3 years running (by fairly significant margins) but I’ve gotten punched in the mouth by Lady Luck in the playoffs every year.
With a 12-team league, I don’t mind a one-week matchup for round 1 when 1st and 2nd place have their bye, but one week for the semifinals and finals is nothing short of ridiculous.
I should have the option for longer playoff matchups and still end a week before the NHL regular season.
