Okay, that will work fine, just being more in the very middle of the season as opposed to the a little past middle that is more common.

I definitely don't want off days to be the same. In past schedules, I've had teams with 2-4 days off in a row during the season at times as well.

I am with you on not wanting everything so symmetric. With 12 or 18 games per opponent, 6 or 9 games both home & away broken into all 3-game series is a good solution, but it is too clean for me. I like seeing ".5"s in the GB numbers and some small differences at any given point in the number of games a team has played. What I was describing above was in a week with one offday not all teams off on either Mon or Thu but some off on Mon and some off on Thu, but that little bit would be the only variety there would be.
That you are good with more than 1 day off at a time in some places allows for moving around games, like turning some pairs of 3-game series into a 2-game series and a 4-game series. In turn that allows for much more variety and a more "interesting" result.
