I wonder how final the NGLL schedule is. I could envision a scenario where, for various reasons, there need to be changes to the schedule and certain teams could benefit from that with an easier draw.
Seems like it happens every year. Last year there was at least one team who dropped out of A which changed quite a lot, including # of playoff spots. But as it stands, with 8 playoff spots, it's not the end of the world if a team takes a loss.
