CHL places for 2019/20: Switzerland overtake Finland to earn 5

 

Season 2019/20

 

EV Zug and other Swiss teams' performances mean their league will get five places next season.

 

Red Bull Munich could earn four for Germany by winning the final in regulation.

 

While we now know the two teams who'll contest the Champions Hockey League Final in 2019, there are also changes to the amount of teams some leagues will get in the 2019/20 competition.

 

Back in 2017/18 the Champions Hockey League introduced a new format with 32 teams and based on sporting merits only.

 

Since then, the CHL League Ranking is used to allocate the number of places per league.

 

There were no changes in the ranking in the first two years that affected the number of places a league will receive.

 

But now there is one - Switzerland has managed to climb up the ranking and overtake Finland.

 

As the Swiss are now ranked second, they will get five places for the 2019/20 season (previously four) while the Finnish Liiga will be reduced to four.

 

The CHL League ranking is based on point per game in average, and while all Swiss teams went out in the Round of 16 their performance prior to elimination was strong enough to be second overall as a league in 2018/19 (1,88 points per game in average).

 

Combined with their performances in the previous seasons, it was the key to finally overtake Finland and achieve one more place for next season.

 

Another country which can hope for more CHL places next season is Germany.

 

Thanks to the success of Red Bull Munich and their qualification for the CHL Final, the DEL has currently overtaken the Czech Republic and is now ranked fourth after the Semi-Finals.

 

If the Germans can keep this spot it would bring them four places next season, while the Czech Republic would lose one place as they are now only fifth.

 

The outcome of this will go down to the wire in the CHL Final - a win for Red Bull Munich is needed in regulationotherwise the CHL League Ranking will be reversed again and the Czech Republic will be able to keep their position and the four places they received in previous seasons.

 

The CHL League Ranking calculates the performance of teams over each CHL season and the better the teams perform, the more places a league can achieve.

 

For calculating the index, four consecutive CHL seasons are taken into consideration (weighted 100, 75, 50 and 25 percent – in which the newest season counts the most).

 

However, the six founding leagues remain ranked 1-6 while all challenger leagues follow.

 

How does the CHL League Ranking work?

 

Teams must earn their place in the CHL on the ice in their own league, based on sporting merits only.

Teams must reach one of the following criteria in order to qualify for the CHL: 

 

1. CHL champions 

2. National league champions 

3. Regular season winners 

4. Regular season runners-up 

5. Regular season third-placed team

6. Regular season fourth-placed team

7. Regular season fifth-placed team

Frolunda extending the lead to 3-0 after 40 minutes thanks two anothers power play goals scored by Ryan Lasch at 24:16 and Ponthus Westerholm at 34:27

 

Incredible Power play efficiency from the Indians 3/3 tonight so far (Even if technically Seidenberg received a 2+2 penalty and the second one wasn´t used), the stupid fouls appears to be realy costly for the German team so far. Alongside with the poor penalty killing tonight on the other side it´s a very bad 0/4 PP efficiency for Munich

    • I still remember how Demi Moore swept the Razzies for Striptease almost 30 years ago and she won Golden Globes now? The acting industry must be short on talent, scripts or everything else   This being said I don't really watch too many new TV shows these days least of all those Marvel/DC action hero stuff that has taken over in the last decade plus. I know it's a box office gold mine but completely not my taste.
    • Yeah, Anora has been really hard for me to place in my personal rankings. It's a fun and enjoyable film for the most part, but it didn't quite generate the same awe or excitement from me that a few others have this season. Still, I was quite shocked to see Madison lose yesterday because she did a deliver a phenomenal performance in my opinion.    The best actress "race" still feels rather open to me, which adds a bit of suspense to each body's nominations.  
    • Anyone remember that  athlete in a European Champs who was given a false start, then protested and got a re-run?  And then false-started twice.   Was kind of like that. 
    • Justin Trudeau has resigned as party leader and will resign as prime minister of Canada once the Liberal Party choses a new leader. Once a new leader in selected there will likely be elections shortly after.
    • I'm not surprised. Colturi seems to be trending in the right direction (duh) and the rest of the Italian women's team is nowhere except veterans Brignone and Goggia. The Delagos have regressed badly for whatever reason and even Bassino has kinda stalled despite still being in her prime. The shit will soon hit the fan but it's probably to late before the next OG. It would be ridiculous if Albania wins more medals in alpine skiing than Italy
    • The regular season is over. Tennesse Titans get #1 overall pick for the 2025 draft after NE Patriots beat the Buffalo Bills back-ups on the last day.   Mike Evans (Buccaneers) ended his 11th season with 11th mark of 1,000 receiving yards which ties Jerry Rice's all-time record. Bucs needed to run one more play to get him 5 yards he needed instead of kneeling down a game they had won already.   Wild Card Schedule:   My picks: Chargers, Ravens, Bills, Eagles, Commanders, Vikings
