I would have had the round robin count for nothing. If teams want to sleepwalk through them, they earned that right and if it bites them in the ass when the playoffs start, that's their problem.
It's pretty silly that Boston won the President's Trophy by a pretty wide margin and will be either the 3rd or 4th seed in the East because of 3 games.
