I worry about GMs and other league job-holders who need downtime between seasons - if they do not get time to decompress between season to season, it just ups the stress level and will lead to faster burnout.

The off-season isn't being hit all too hard by the shortening. The sim team is going to be the biggest help to this, with a sim team we can fit a few more games during each sim and shorten the regular season by a few days, not skip Sundays during the playoffs and start the next round om the evening if game 7s are finished during an afternoon sim.

I know Luke is working on a presentable schedule that will hopefully put people's minds to ease.

Implementing it this offseason is extremely unlikely because of the Juniors expansion.
