The idea of the current system is to have at least 1 team per division relegate unconditionally -- no second chances.

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

but at least for the 5 placed team, they are lot of discussions because it don't have any games in the off season, and this problem was be solved.

Even if i don't like it that much, i prefer are salry "freeze" for the time without games and the current system - but they are also other system who coul be working.

Whose idea? I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but you're making that up.

I think the suggestion is a great idea, actually. And not just because I'm a curling fan. This suggestion — not coincidentally, from a Canadian — is simply the Page playoff system (without a final) used in curling tournaments.

The BB team. I am not making this up -- I have brought up proposals for relegation playoff structure that involves the entire bottom four. The answer was that being able to tank for a top pick and avoid relegation at the same time is undesired. Therefore, guaranteed relegation is a must for the league structure to work as desired.

OK, thanks, that's the explanation I needed to hear, at least.

OK then, what about this?

8's get RELEGATED.

Two pools are made (below)
Big 8 #5, 7 & Great 8 #6
Great 8 #5, 7 & Big 8 #6

Then, teams compete in a round-robin format.
1st Tuesday - #5 (at home) vs. #6
1st Saturday - #6 (at home) vs. #7
2nd Tuesday - #7 (at home) vs. #5

The team with the most wins (or largest point margin as TB) is SAFE.

2nd Saturday - 2nd place team (at home, according to above) vs. 3rd place team.

Winner is SAFE, loser gets RELEGATED.

You get to play at home against the #6 team, any you only have to play away against the #7 team.

My round-robin format is designed so that every team is able to get funds from a home game in the playoffs. Isn't that more important than having the #5 team play at home in all of their games, making it almost impossible for them to get relegated?

actually you could win your away game, and you should have a advance of finishing 5th then 7(ok currently this place is a punishment to, but when we change it don't replace is with an Hobsons choiche).

Maybe the fund problems, could be fixed in dividing the money 50:50 - that won't be bad for the PO team too.
