I'd be content with balancing the schedule (as mentioned in my earlier post), assuming it isn't that random generator crap that has screwed me two years running...facey wroteCOLONAny conference changes will be an admin/CC decision in the off-season; balancing the schedule more is of far greater importance then moving you to the West -> You are right that you'll have to beat 3 good teams if you finish outside the top 3 in the east... Currently you'd face TOR then BOS then NJD (assuming top seat wins each time, there will be an upset again in the BBKL). That is not notably different from what SJS would have to deal with: VAN, then COL followed up by STL/LAK.
As for the comparison you made between myself and SJS, I have to disagree, none of: VAN, STL, LAK are in the same universe as BOS and NJD, I could even make the argument for COL, and certainly, SJS is nowhere near as good as I am, so he shouldn't have the benefit of similar competition, although as I have shown above, it isn't similar, in fact it is far worse. Furthermore, as we both know, I will finish 5th, meaning--> PIT, NJD, BOS...
we don't need changes; teams like NJD, WSH, COL, LAK, BOS, etc will have to sell off many pieces each summer, and as the league gets smarter the sell job won't result in as-good rosters... and hell if it does, then shame on other managers.
