Feels like every year there are some teams who get the short end of the stick with travel and B2B games and some teams get the benefit of playing tired teams on a b2b more often.

These scheduling perks can greatly benefit some teams. Does the NHL need to tighten up these scheduling advantages and make it more fair for all teams?

Maybe have a maximum and minimum for all teams playing b2b and playing teams on a b2b. Keep it between a certain number for all teams and make that number very close. No team should get a big advantage because of scheduling and IMO NHL needs to do a better job. These points can be the difference between missing and making playoffs.
