    That's how they fit in the schedule with the timelines. I think it's the least of the issues with this system and considering there's a pandemic going on outside the bubble haha.

    I agree... just because they always did it in previous years, this is not a normal year

    How does the schedule change if two series play in the east and two series play in the west and they alternate every day?

    They have three slots per day to fit in games, and if they pull a few B2Bs, they shorten this round by a couple of days, and by the end there's a week shaved off, at least.

    So this round is currently scheduled to be 13 days. 2 games per day per hub is 14 days. You could just as easily have the same effect by not announcing game 7 until necessary. If you’re really worried about timeline, you could shorten it down 12 or 11 days by not announcing games 6 or 7 until necessary. It’s not like you have to worry about travel or building availability.

    It’s for sure a minor issue, but it’s still galaxy brained.

    Another five minutes or so and it becomes the longest game in the cap era.

    I smell an opportunity for an advertisement for a deodorant...3 periods of hockey. 5 more periods of overtime. 70 minutes of ice time. Fresh as a daisy because he used XXXX.

    If I may give you an extra little bit to add to that opportunity you smelled ( underrated wordplay right there, by the way):

    "XXXX Fresh Ice Scent".
    Want a Signature? Go to Settings, and you'll find Edit Signature down the list on the left.

    Columbus was the longest running series, somehow still played on the first day of the first (second?) round, and has to play another game in less than 18 hours. Again, just unnecessary and completely galaxy brained scheduling here.

    Just pointing out whoever said 18 hours on twitter was obviously wrong but I still should have fact checked it. Although ~32 hours isn’t significantly better.
