Just eyeballing it, I see some problems. The Habs and Sabres, who are both above 500 and have more wins than below 500 and fewer win teams like the Av's and Blues, finished below them. Problem with the formula when you end up with a result like that.

I'm surprised THN used space on this article. Looks like something you'd see in a hometown paper in a Federal League city.

I dropped my subscription years ago. THN became a dung heap IMO when they changed editors. It should be titled NHL News. Fighting is down in the NHL.
