If the North Division were really worse than the others, you would expect that to show either (a) in lower than average winning percentages by the North Division teams when they had to play against other opponents, or (b) in a significant increase in their winning percentages when they no longer had to play other opponents, or both. Neither (a) nor (b) is true. I therefore conclude that there is no evidence that the North was worse than the other divisions.
If anyone has moved the goalposts, it is you. You started by saying the division as a whole was worse, and then shifted your ground to claim that it should be judged solely by the records of the top four teams.

It was the worst division in the NHL this season. If you disagree please tell me which one was worse. Stop playing games.
