I’d go with four divisions in each conference
Western Conference:
Northwest-
Calgary
Edmonton
Seattle
Vancouver
Pacific-
Anaheim
Los Angeles
San Jose
Vegas
Central-
Chicago
Minnesota
St. Louis
Winnipeg
South-
Arizona
Colorado
Dallas
Nashville
Eastern Conference:
Metropolitan-
Boston
New Jersey
NY Islanders
NY Rangers
Northeast-
Buffalo
Montreal
Ottawa
Toronto
Atlantic-
Columbus
Detroit
Philadelphia
Pittsburgh
Southeast-
Carolina
Florida
Tampa Bay
Washington
Each division winner makes it, then the next four best teams in each conference fill the other spots.
6 games against main divisional rival, and 4 games against other divisional teams(14)
3 games against inter-conference division team(36)
2 games against each other Conference team(32)
