A long time ago didn't the WCHA have 2 divisions? Why can't they do that
and have a cross over playoff?
You'd end up with a 26 game league schedule (16 in your division, 10 out)
and everybody would be happy. The UAA situation would be resolved that in
Year 1 you'd play 2 in AK, and in Year 2, UAA would play 2 in your barn.
Everyone else would be home & home.
The more I look at it, the ECAC concept of travel partners does make sense.
Only you have to have multiples of 4, not 2 to make it work..
