of course many different factors comes into play, but if we exclude everything, 3rd and 4th are better than 6th. the bottom line - people will do what they prefer. we do not need to make higher places more attractive, just because people are willing to fight for a chance to relegate.

One solution is to have 14 teams in each division

1-4 : PO
5-6 : PL
7 : relegate

Of course this is a major change but at least every team will have something to fight for at the end of the season.

The reduced salary payment for weeks without a competitive match could solve the problem.

Another suggestion: The 5th teams could play a decisive match for the better draft position. This would have the advantage of a little excitement for the 5th placed teams, additional income etc.

if you still think there's a problem, then only 1 relegation game instead of series until 2 wins, should make 6th place less attractive.

You could also have the 5th place team play the 8 th place team...this would allow the 5th place team to make money and not punish people would finished 8th in a much stronger conference.

Maybe on the monday before the playoff start the 5th place team could play the 4th place team an winner would go to the playoffs.

NO,you earn the playoff during all the season,it's just ridicoulous.
I think the solution is to give some income to the friendly matches between the teams that arrive 5th and 8th in the league,maybe it could work as the cup incomes with a certain income depending from the division they are in

Yes. I think that main problem for these teams isnt the income, but the fact that theirs training is ruined.
