Confusing seeding system using NHL 1v8

Hello FHM Dev Team,

I am writing due to a recent issue I've experienced in a save of mine for a sim league. We just finished the season, and switched over to the 1v8 playoff system in game for the first time this season, yet the standings in game are seeded in a way that does not quite match our expectation. I have attached screenshots from what we believe the standings and playoff matchups should produce, along with what the standings and playoff matchups appear to be in game. I have 2 save files I uploaded to the FHM file explorer, one entitled "Incorrect Playoffs" displays the save after we simulated forward to the playoffs, and the other entitled "NSL File" is from a few days earlier just after the season ended in order to provide a file more malleable save file to work with and adjust matchups as needed.

I am aware that there are two different systems in the game which are meant to use 1v8 playoffs for NHL game saves, and I have also talked to friends of mine who said this is something they've noticed before. Did I click on the wrong version of 1v8 playoffs? Or are both the same way? And is there any chance you could get our playoff matchups to match what we were under the impression was going to be the way it ended up working?

Thanks in advance for your help.
