This is the NHL we're talking about, and they've been screwing up simple math for years.
32 teams is pretty easy to do in a generic sense. 31 teams just doesn't happen except in the NHL's version of reality, where some games are worth 3 points in the standings, and some only 2.
Even if FHM didn't hold the NHL license, they'd need to wait to see just how a 31 team league is going to work.
