Every two years. The proposed schedule would have Calgary go to Pittsburgh one year, and Pittsburgh comes to Calgary the next season. You play 8 home games against two Eastern divisions one season, and 8 away games against two Eastern divisions. Alternating the following season.
If you think about it, Eastern swings can actually be accomplished by one or two road trips, significantly reducing travel time for all teams.
