The current format stacks the better teams onto one side of the bracket and leaves the other side wide open. It's absurd.
There are 4 teams that have to play in the WC round... of those teams, it should be that the one with the best record is declared the #3 seed, regardless of whether or not they are a division winner. That way you don't get a relatively weak team that won a crappy division playing the #6 seed, with the winner of that going on to play the #2 seed. Meanwhile the #1 seed is forced to play the best WC team. Yikes what a stupid format.
Simply give the #3 seed to the top WC team if their record is better than the weakest division winner. Problem solved and you don't have to reseed after the WC round.
