Right now its conference vs conference, how about an option where it is both conferences vs the championship team?

Some of these formats would be nice for retro leagues. But will there be a "Rendez-vous 87" option ?

North American vs World is a great thing to add.

But my suggestion is that the Commish decides wich team belongs to wich Allstar Team. (You can "assign" them like you do with unassigned players).

What is "Rendez-vous 87"?

Rendez-vous '87 was an ice hockey exhibition series between the Soviet national ice hockey team and a team of all-stars from the National Hockey League, held in Quebec City. It replaced the NHL's all-star festivities for the 1986-87 NHL season. The Soviet team was paid $80,000 for their appearance in Rendez-vous '87, while the NHLers raised $350,000 for the players' pension fund.

Rendez-vous '87 was designed as a follow-up to the Challenge Cup series in 1979, hoping that the team of NHL all-stars could beat the Soviet team, unlike before. To this end, the series was a two-game affair instead of a three-game affair in 1979. The two-game series took place during five days of festivities starting on February 9, 1987 and finishing on February 13. The series was very successful, with some, including Wayne Gretzky, calling for more international hockey, especially between Canada and Russia, the two top powers of hockey at the time.
