CHANGES FOR THE 2021-22 SEASON:

I finally figured out what the playoff problem was. The game says it's a 6 team playoff with the top teams getting a first round bye. That's basically a fancy way of saying 8 team playoffs. While I didn't want this to happen at first, I think it's an opportunity to differentiate from the NHL. Rather than having the top teams in each division go to the playoffs, the top teams in the league go to the playoffs. However because this league is still very small, only 2 teams miss the playoffs.

The Bay Area Sea Lions will change their name to the San Francisco Sea Lions to connect more to the local community.

After fans begged and pleaded, the Hamilton Panthers will re-brand and bring the Tigers name back to Hamilton. The original Hamilton Tigers of the NHL folded way back in 1925.
