Notes: The length of the above seasons varies from 70 to 84 games. Ties were only recorded until 2003-04. In 1999–2000 the NHL started to award points to teams that had lost in overtime, leading to a system in which teams could potentially earn 3 points between them in a single game, rather than a fixed number of two previously. After the 2004-05 NHL lockout the league eliminated ties meaning that any game which went to overtime would be a three point game. These changes in points awarded therefore make strict comparisons in wins, losses, and points before and after these dates slightly problematic.

Famous quotes containing the words season and/or records:
“She, O, she is fallen
Into a pit of ink, that the wide sea
Hath drops too few to wash her clean again
And salt too little which may season give
To her foul tainted flesh!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“My confessions are shameless. I confess, but do not repent. The fact is, my confessions are prompted, not by ethical motives, but intellectual. The confessions are to me the interesting records of a self-investigator.”
—W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)
