How It Works

Build the ultimate NHL all-time team and see if you can go 82-0!

The Draft

Each game you get one Respin Decade — keeps the same team, re-rolls to a different decade of that franchise
You also get one Respin Team — keeps the same decade, re-rolls to a different team from that era
Each respin can only be used once per game

No ratings — just the raw numbers. Stats shown on each card are the player's decade averages with that franchise, weighted by games played.

Skaters: Goals/gm, Assists/gm, Points/gm — all projected per game
Goalies: Save percentage (SV%) and Goals Against Average (GAA)
A player who played 80 games contributes 80× more weight to their average than a player who played 1 game in a season — small samples don't inflate stats
Best season is the single season where a player's 3 × goals + 2 × assists was highest with that franchise in that decade — goals are weighted more heavily since they're roughly 1.7× rarer than assists in the NHL

Each player has an internal rating (not shown) used to calculate win probability each game.

Skater ratings

Goals and assists per 82 games are era-adjusted to a neutral scoring baseline (6.0 goals/game). A 100-point season in the high-scoring 1980s (7.7 GPG) is deflated; a 100-point season in the low-scoring 2000s (5.5 GPG) is inflated
Defensemen get a 1.6× multiplier on their era-adjusted points — elite D-man scoring is rarer than forward scoring, so the scale adjusts accordingly
Plus/minus contributes a small amount (×0.2) to account for defensive impact, but is weighted lightly since it reflects team strength as much as individual play
Ratings scale from ~20 (fringe) to 100 (all-time great), calibrated so players like Gretzky and Lemieux at their peak hit 100

Goalie ratings

Rated relative to the league-average SV% for their decade — being .015 above average in the 2010s matters more than in the 1980s, when equipment and technique varied more widely
GAA also contributes, measured against the decade's reference GAA

Team rating & win probability

Goalies carry 30% of the team rating; skaters (averaged across the 5) carry 70% — reflecting how much a goalie can steal or cost a game in hockey
Win probability uses a sigmoid curve against a league-average opponent (rating 65). A rating of ~75 gives roughly a 73% win rate; ~85 gives ~88%; going 82-0 is genuinely rare even with an elite roster
