Number of Playoff Teams
I just bought the game. I love OOTPB but I know very little about Hockey. I'm learning as I go. That's not actually important for this question, but it's who I am.
Ok. I tried creating a custom league in Sandbox mode. I wanted a less complex setup than the NHL and all world leagues or whatever. I decided to go with a 20 team league with 2 conferences and 4 total divisions. I was a little surprised to see 16 teams make the playoffs. I didn't really want 80% of the teams to make the postseason. It doesn't look like there's a way to customize playoffs so I need a little help. What do I need to do to get the playoffs to something closer to 50%? I don't really want a bigger league but I would be ok with smaller. Did the number of playoff teams have anything to do with the fact that I chose to have 2 conferences and 4 divisions? How many playoff teams are there with 18 teams in the league? How about 16 14 teams? Any help would be appreciated. |

Most of the custom setups are real-life ones that carry the same, or a similar, playoff system to their real equivalent - I think 20/2/4 was an OHL setup, and the 16-team playoff is attached to it and isn't changeable. 16 teams/0 divisions/78 games will do what you want, 8 teams make the playoffs there.
