FPHL 21/22 schedule is a mess

Hello!
There is something wrong with the FPHL 21/22 schedule. Here is a screenshot at the end of the regular season: teams played different amount of games.

I think this is just a regular thing. If you look at the attachment below, (captured from the FPHL official site), you'll see the final standings from 2019/2020 showing teams playing a different amount of games. The AHL does something similar where playoff seeding is determined by points percentage. (Since some teams play more games than others).

Yeah, the FPHL schedule has always been like that. They've played a dozen seasons and never had one where all the teams finished with the same number of games played.

Wow, that's the strangest thing I ever learned about any professional sports league.

The AHL has an unbalanced schedule as the West Division plays 6 or 7 less games (can't remember the exact number off the top of my head).
