[uncleben]

Well, it's that time of year again! Time to start measuring up a wholly inconsequential and non-predictive stat!

Who will be this year's Preseason Champion!?

I'll be updating league preseason standings everyday (usually the morning after the game).

 

[uncleben]

2016 Preseason Champions: Colorado Avalanche (30th in regular season)
2015 Preseason Champions: Anaheim Ducks (6th)
2014 Preseason Champions: Columbus Blue Jackets (23rd)
2013 Preseason Champions: Boston Bruins (1st)

 

[PatrikOverAuston]

Wow, who expected that result from Edmonton vs. the HOF Legends Superteam? Granted, it was a split-squad contest, but the Flames had at least three #1D and a couple of first-line centers on each roster. It's especially strange given that Vezina-caliber goalies manned the net every minute for Calgary in both contests, but what can you do? It's like seeing the Miracle on Ice happen twice in the same night.

 

[CraigsList]

2 losses for Calgary and 2 wins for Edmonton.

 

[jetsforever]

If last year's champion was Colorado, it seems this may not be the best standing of which to come out on top

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

2 losses for Calgary and 2 wins for Edmonton.

LOL
Oilers b team demolished calgarys full roster.
we won
dis is our stanley cupz

 

[uncleben]

If last year's champion was Colorado, it seems this may not be the best standing of which to come out on top

Boston in 2013 ended up winning the President's Trophy


So... really, all we can say is that this is a pointless exercise

 

[spiny norman]

Stickied the thread.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Time for the Avs to defend the title starting tonight....

 

[CallMeShaft]

Hawks beat Jackets 5-2.

 

[Howie Hodge]

And The Jackets played mostly AHL players tonight.

Not an indication of their regular season roster, simply tryouts.

[MOD]

 

[ihaveyuidonttouchme]

Would be great if u'd add total PIMs too

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Yammy hokej >>Jonny hokej at the same age.

 

[Aestivalis]

Boston in 2013 ended up winning the President's Trophy


So... really, all we can say is that this is a pointless exercise

Hawks won the President's trophy in 2013, Bruins in 2014.

 

[uncleben]

Hawks won the President's trophy in 2013, Bruins in 2014.

2013 Preseason would be the prelude to the 2013-14 Season though, so Bruins were the 2013 Preseason Champs and the 2013-14 President's Trophy Winners

Sorry for any confusion!

 

[LetsGoBLUES91]

Absolutely hilarious the Avs won last year.

 

[bob27]

2016 Preseason Champions: Colorado Avalanche (30th in regular season)
2015 Preseason Champions: Anaheim Ducks (6th)
2014 Preseason Champions: Columbus Blue Jackets (23rd)
2013 Preseason Champions: Boston Bruins (1st)

Seems like this year's pre-season champion has reason for optimism, if the pattern holds.

 

[linusandvarlamov]

Absolutely hilarious the Avs won last year.

Yeah . It really played with our minds last year ! We were all getting hyped up for the start of the real season ... guess that didn't turn out too well .

 

[uncleben]

Updated after last night!

For some reason, kept losing my spot while updating today, so if something is off or missing, let me know!

 

[canuckfromtoronto]

Vancouver had 4 SSG

 

[uncleben]

Vancouver had 4 SSG

I know their team has been split across two continents, and not able to mix their groups, but I've been counting SSGs as games played on the same day, for simplicity sake.


Was really debating counting LAK and VAN games as SSG at the start though. Think I should?

 

[uncleben]

Sorry for the boring looking table.

Looking for another way to do tables with the new boards.
Likely won't do updates for the next couple days until another method is figured out

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

The Hawks will win the cup.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Detroit a perfect 2-0 at LCA so far this preseason, Hopefully after tonight and tomorrow they will be 4-0

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

The Hawks will win the cup.

No they wont Tampa is winning the cup next year.
