Each Season I have collected stats for each to team to formulate a Season Rating, These Ratings are Averaged together for each team to Create a Franchise Rating, I was hoping to be on Roster for this one but unfortunately that didn't happen. The Formula for Season Ratings =PTS-(L*2)+(GD/4.25)+((PW*10)-20) (The result is rounded to 2 decimals) PTS: Points L: Losses GD: Goal Differential PW: Playoff Wins The Google Sheets Doc https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QFKHm04xwc1darjLVkK7BXyePBX9fcYnYQrGdV9cDPQ/edit?usp=sharing Previous Threads S12: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/the-franchise-report.309439/ S13: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/franchise-ratings-updated-for-s13.310203/ S14: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/lghl-franchise-ratings-updated-for-s14.317630/ S15: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/franchise-ratings-updated-for-s15.325542/ S16: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/s16-franchise-ratings.331130/ S17: https://www.leaguegaming.com/forums/index.php?threads/s17-franchise-ratings.335871/ Charts Stats I also ended up collecting a lot of information as I had to enter this all by hand which means I was easily able to enter in Franchise Totals.

Washington extends it's the league leading longest active playoff streak to 11, each of those seasons having more then 40 wins. The Buffalo Sabres ended their 6 season long playoff drought, The new longest active playoff drought belongs to The Chicago Blackhawks who have not won a single playoff series since S12 (6 seasons) Due to the new standings rule changes, for the first time ever 6 teams from one division missed the playoffs. Under the old rules the Seattle Kraken would have made playoffs, being the only team ever to do so while having a below 500 record. The 81 points the Seattle Kraken got would have been the least amount of points a team which made the playoffs had, The current record for fewest points to make the playoffs belongs to the S1 Edmonton Oilers who went 39-37-6 obtaining 84 points.
