Power ranking

The Lightning won the Cup. Congrats to them.

They will be favourite for the next season, whenever it is played. I would be surprised if there is a 2020-21 season. TV ratings have not been great and television rights do not appear to be enough for the league to be profitable.

Power ranking

A last look at the power ranking. It’s fitting that the Lightning finish on top. The Stars are in seventh position, up two ranks from my last post.
