Yeah, but you could make the same argument for expanding to 20 teams, which obviously isn't a good idea.... basically I don't think that's a good enough reason to expand the playoffs. Personally I hate that 16 teams make the playoffs in the NHL, it cheapens the regular season and rewards mediocrity. Once you expand the playoffs it's basically impossible to go back, which is why I wish the MLB would leave the number of playoff teams alone.
