The divisional system and playoff format seem to mimic the NHL even though the two leagues have different sizes and geographies. I'd be interested to see the SHL do something unique like a balanced 76 game schedule where each team plays every other team 4 times with 1-16, 2-8, etc playoff matches.

There are no injuries in the SHL and I think that's important to keep differently from the NHL. Not that the NHL can even turn off injuries, but keeping them turned off in our league insures peoples aren't discouraged to participate by a random injury hurting their player's performance.

I think the SHL in general would be more fun if free agency actually carried the same weight it does in the NHL. As it stands right now, there are VERY few trades that are surprising and most are just meme trades sending GM player corpses to another team for one more crack at a cup.

I sort of wish that contract negotiations and unit and player tactics were a thing again, because I think that would make things more varied tactically, but I understand why it is better to not do it that way in the SHL.

SHL needs something small to rally around during the season such as the winter classic or stadium series. It could coincide with a graphic contest, a special ice for the home team, optional alternate jerseys, etc. Would be a fun way to showcase 1-2 teams.

Not exactly something real leagues do, but league media for real life is obviously a cut above what we do here. I'd love it if we could have more newspaper looking articles where the text is formatted around lots of pictures.

Someway to incentivize a free agent frenzy would be cool, like teams having a certain amount of TPE they can offer each offseason to free agents. Money alone isn't enough to incentivize people to move away from friends as it is so easy to get

The NHL does hype videos for certain things very well. Like hype for the playoffs, or certain games. I think if the SHL did something like that to get people more excited for playoffs, or keep people in the loop for things, it could have potential

Injuries! Just kidding those are a horrible idea and something I truly hate in Chel. But I think since it is in recent memory and it is actually quite fun is the Free Agent Frenzy event. I would love for the league to go crazy one day of the season.

1. Let the SHL give out 8 seasons contract, but then also have the option to buy-out players

2. Let vets be sent down to the J. Give them a 500 TPE cap and subject that to a modified minor league regression. I want a 40 year old guy at 250 TPE in the J for locker room presence over a bunch of IAs

A fleshed out system for IIHF would be cool: Olympics mattering and being separate is a really cool idea, and while there's been many pitches, there haven't been any that have made it to application since the S10's. Promotion and demotion are cool concepts as well, just worrying when you considering you're no longer playing for an IIHF gold per se.

I'm going to beat the very dead horse and say the SHL should have unit tactics at leeeeeast for the special teams. Heck the barrier to entry, it is utterly unrealistic for an entire roster to operate the same way in every situation and on every line.

The thing that the SHL should do that real life leagues do is pay extortionate amounts of cold hard cash to its players. I am not sure how the league will go about funding this but I am sure we can get the money together to make us all millionaires.

Not really one thing that stand out to me that one or the other should follow...
The calendar have similar rule and the playoffs bracket too and I think that's the most important ones.
