I was wondering myself if it might not be a bad idea to combine this season and last years short season stats into 1 big season (of 130 games or whatever it is), so that we can get caught up with the NHL, cause that season difference is gonna be hard to catch up from at this point. We'd be off until at least the end of this year then.
Thoughts?

I'm aware of that, but we'd only have to do it once and it shouldn't be THAT different from what you'd have to do for a shortened season anyway, no? Otherwise we either have to rush a season super fast or always be 2 seasons behind, neither is a good option, IMO.

What about rushing the off season? The season in my opinion goes by kind of fast, whereas Free Agency kind of lingers around especially towards the end.

What about like the real NHL, we make a half-season?
Similar to the NHL, make a season of 56 games; that way you create ratings for just 56 games
Then you would go back to a regular full season.
Also, along with the shortened season, we could fast-track the off-season for this time around to try to catch up.
But honestly, what does Jon think/feel about all of it? It would mean extra work for him, and we don't need to burn him out.

Its only January guys.
The only limiting factor we have is Jon and Jake and both need to be on board, but in terms of the ability to catch up, if we start the offseason now we will be caught up to the NHL at the start of the 2023 season.
We can also look at double simming during the season. It might cause some auto lines and same extra variance around the standings, but IMO not too much.
Just saying that makes more sense to me rather than trying to combine seasons (what would we do about the draft?!)

Just saying that makes more sense to me rather than trying to combine seasons (what would we do about the draft?!) Thought about it, the best solution to the draft if we do a combination season (which seems more and more to me like the only way, since we haven't even gotten started on another season yet) would be to just combine the draft pool. Our picks stay the same, but the pool of players would contain both seasons. Don't have a pick? Tough luck.

Also, instead of combining both NHL seasons, maybe we just skip a year and use this seasons full season as our base instead, but still combine the draft pools.

They the best from both seasons and apply to ratings, we may get a lot of higher rated players than normal but we will still have boat load of lower rated players, higher rating should make for a pretty crazy and fun season. Combining drafts not back idea to catch up to draft. I say the best ratings from either season because some players were picked up based on season they had and ratings for that player would be good, now if that player did not have as good of season the next one than that trade you made based on what he was doing would not be as good a s a trade, which is why I go with best season of both. Only few players may have great seaosn than suck following season, but making trade based on what going in both seasons may have been a different trade with different assets! not sure if I am affected a lot but I know one guy I traded fthat may not get ratings if we combine seasons that I traded for! just a thought, yet crazy one but we done crazy here in past!

This is probably the best solution, players and picks were traded with that in mind that there are going to be separate drafts, so combining them really screws over the people who made transactions with a plan in mind. I think mimicking the shortened season with some double sims, and then catching up to the current season that is happening now we should be fine

Gonna have to bite the bullet and make some sacrifices or we'll never catch up.

The world is f*cked up enough as it is. Let's not panic around here. The offseason is a helluva a lot of work for Jon. He'll get after it when he's motivated to do so; I can only imagine it takes some courage to tackle this daunting task. It'll happen and everything will work out mighty fine.
