Revision regarding the B Division Regular Season Final Standings

Posted by Sharon Webmaster on Feb 26 2009 at 04:00PM PST in 2018-19
It has come to the Boards attention that there is a disagreement regarding the final standings of the B league. The Red and White teams both finished with the same number of points and wins , although not identical records. The records are different because White entered the league after the other 4 teams had played 5 games. Thus we have been asked to settle the dispute for playoff seeding.
1. Currently the rule reads as follows:

RULE 21 The determination of record is based on total points (win=2, tie=1). In case two teams are tied in total points, the tiebreakers are, in order: Head-to-head won-loss record, Head-to-head total goals, Total goals scored against all teams for the year, Total goals scored minus total goals allowed against all teams for the year, Total games won against all teams for the year, and Coin toss.

This rule presupposes that all teams play an equal number of games. That is not the case this year. There have been some individuals who would like to utilize this rule as is despite the unequal number of games played. That would give the teams that played 25 games an unfair advantage. Others wish to approach the standings question by looking to winning percentage. Again, this puts some teams at a disadvantage. Furthermore, both proposed solutions do not give any weight to the intent of Rule 21.
The intent of Rule 21 is to rank the teams after playing an equal number of games, with each team playing the other an equal number of times. This season the only way to accomplish this is to have the first 5 games of the season for the original four (4) teams to be dropped from the regular season point totals, thus putting all five (5) teams on equal footing the seasons standing would be as follows:

 

Team                Games Played        W           L        T                Total Points

White                             20                                  15               3            2                           32

Red                                20                                  12               6            2                            26

Green                            20                                   11              7            2                            24

Blue                               20                                     4              16          2                            10

Gold                              20                                     3               15          2                             8

 

Therefore, it is the opinion of the Hockey Committee, without any individuals involved in the B League that the White team finishes in first place, followed by Red, Green, Blue and Gold.
