This is fantasy land and too complicated, but I'd love it if there were 2 different conference/division alignments that alternated each year. It would be perfect with ARI or FLA moving to QC or TOR2
Even years:
CGY
EDM
VAN
WPG
4 eastern CAD teams
Odd years:
pacific division as projected with SEA
other divisions would similarly shuffle a bit. You keep the tightest rivalries all the time, and mix up the other exposures a bit more.
