Because Winnipeg finished with the belt last year, after taking it from Calgary. Belt was held by a non-playoff team for almost half of last season.


Exactly. ANY TEAM can win this

Personally I looked at LA's schedule, picked the first team to beat them, then who I thought would beat them, and so on, 90 games later I found my team, predicted the year in advance :ph34r:

Don't snipe my team guys

ok but i mean you have a greater chance of winning picking a team with the most wins...just the slightest advantage

Overall wins means nothing, no team will go 82-0, so no team will keep the belt forever, and once a team loses it, it has to line up to get it back

Not necessarily. No team plays another more than 6 times per season. Very few teams take all 6 games, or even 5-1. The result is extremely random.

theres got to be a greater chance of lets say picking the bruins compared to florida or something...cant say that both teams are equally likely to win

like saying bruins 50 wins have the same chance of winning and holding the belt vs sabres 15 wins lol

yea im agreeing with you but there has to be better odds even if they are so slim.

not really since it cycles through the league. a team could lose it then gain it back next week even when it cycles through 3-4 teams. ofc it could hit a team on the west where the east wont see it for days. but in general teams that have a higher win % should have a better chance statistically speaking

not really as in line up*
