The formula used is based on CHL statistics and is compiled by CHLfans.com contributor Jon Larson. Teams are
ranked in each category from 1-16, with 16 being the best. For goals scored, goals against, and goal differential,
they are ranked on a per game basis. For instance, if a team has scored 30 goals and given up 19, they will be
+11. That is then divided by games played, goals scored, and goals against. The rest of the stats such as winning
%, PP %, and PK % are ranked based CHL stats. If 2 or more teams are tied in something, we will add the 2 and
divide by the number of teams. The points are then added up and we have the rankings!
