The consensus thus far has been that playing time restrictions hit rebuilding teams and/or teams with thinner rosters too hard, and that it starts putting things into "not fun" territory.

If you look at things right now, Banananov is leading the league in goals and tied for the points lead at just shy of 20:00 ATOI. More playing time does inflate things to some degree, but it's not as though that's the only factor.

I definitely have opinions on what works best when it comes to playing time, but I don't think there's much of a reason to change anything right now.

What do you mean by not fun? In that, because their team lacks the depth needed to field an active and competitive roster they get down about things cause their team does poorly?

I mean I do feel a bit for teams that get stuck in a rut where they may only be left with say 6 actives, but thats the eb and flow of a league. Gotta piece together what you can for now, sign some inactives and draft well. Seems a bit unfair that because your shorthanded, you can just play your top players half of the game to make up for it, and stay potentially competitive no?
