However, I believe they should construct something inovative to end this season, to give all teams some kind of motivation to come back.
I think they will strictly concentrate on the playoff teams...especially if they end up with any kind of single-site system. The 16 teams would play some number of exhibition games against each other to get in shape and then the playoffs start. This has the added benefit of locking in seeding and draft order as they currently stand
Anything short of 82 games is arbitrary. What the league cares about is the TV money from playoffs. So, any construct starts by filling that need and works backwards to set things up the best way possible to make the playoffs succeed.
