So those results really aren't all valid or telling much.
I beg to differ. Teams playing in the Mountain Zone generally start their home games at 4 EST, just like the west coast teams. A 1 pm EST start is three hours earlier than they're used to, again, just like the West Coast teams. Thus, their adjustment is roughly the same.
EDIT: Additionally, with both Mountain Zone teams being in the west division of their respective conferences, they would play a good chunk of their away games at 4EST as well, making a 1 EST start relatively rare.
