Introduction

Updated July 2026

The season-review articles for all teams have been finished, and I’ve begun to publish them. See the 2025-26 Season Team Analysis page to select team articles.

I think of the articles in terms of their printed presentation (the PDF file version of an article), which informed the structure of every team article.

All articles are six printed pages long (one exception). There are seven standard charts for each team, six at the front and one at the end. The first six charts take up three printed pages, a team-specific article takes up two pages, and the final chart takes up one page.

Articles will be released in alphabetical order (two exceptions). The order is based on the official short form of a team’s name, so the Columbus article (CBJ) will be released before the Calgary article (CGY).

The one exception to the page-limit for an article is the Ottawa Senators, whose article is quite long (approaching 20 pages). I’m a Senator fan: sue me.

The two exceptions to the alphabetical order of publication are the Toronto and Ottawa articles. Toronto gets to go first because they won the lottery draft. Ottawa goes last because I was saving the best (for me) until the end. 

All this work is happening later in the summer than I thought it would. A big source of the delay was a nice vacation in Italy (not-so-humble brag).
