If they change the rules to replicate the regular season, they won’t do it anymore.
Except it isn't fair to be able to ice such a stacked roster come the playoffs. Let's say next year Draisaitl signs an extension in Edmonton. Him and McDavid get nagging injuries coming up to the trade deadline and Edmonton is in a playoff spot. Now let's say for theory sake Toronto gets hit bad with injuries or their goaltending sucks and they look like they will miss and so does TB. So Edmonton adds Mitch Marner and Victor Hedman at the deadline. Come game 1 both Draisaitl and McDavid come back, are you still happy?
