Well, the regular season has finally come to an end. This week, there have been two meaningless games, both between Vancouver and Calgary, neither of which made the playoffs. The Canucks won the first game at home, then the next day, Calgary won in Calgary. Neither game was very exciting or interesting, but the season is done. With the split, Calgary lost a rating point and Vancouver gained one, but neither team’s overall position in the rankings changed.
These ratings do not include any of the playoff games that have taken place before the end of the regular season.
