Heard from a reliable source that the league loved the expanded playoffs a couple years ago with covid and is looking to expand playoffs for good.
Not sure if that means keeping the league as-is and just adding one more playoff spot to go to 7 teams, OR adding one more team to the A-league to trigger the automatic expansion to 8 playoff teams.
Either way, exciting news for the league. That 7th and 8th team has always been highly competitive.
We've had several 5th and one 6th seed win the SHIP. I'm not sure we'll have a 7th or 8th do so but never say never.
