Scoring 100 points in a season is reserved for only the best of the best. Many franchises who have had the best players have also had more 100-point seasons than others. The second part of Tim Kolupanowich’s look at the history of 100-point scorers breaks down team stats, including the most 100-point scorers by franchise, country and season.

During the Toronto Maple Leafs’ extended stint outside the playoffs, they made a change at General Manager. After John Ferguson Jr. but before Brian Burke, Cliff Fletcher was brought in to clean up the mess. Instead, the interim GM arguably took a bad situation and made it worse, and the Leafs have been stuck in a vicious cycle of failure ever since.

The Ottawa Senators are doing better than anyone thought they’d be. With four key players performing up to their standards, this year’s group is playing its way into the playoffs and may give some contenders a run for their money. Matt Horner breaks down how it all happened.

The theory that an NHL team has to “get bad to get good” has been debunked by both the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers, who have taken two distinctly different routes toward the successes they’ve had. They’ve proven that the idea of rebuilding through the draft is clearly not the only option.
