When was the last time each NHL team had a 100-point season?

With the 2025-26 NHL season officially in the books, here’s a look at the last time each team in the league reached a universal benchmark of success.

The 82-game trek to the finish line is finally over for NHL teams, with the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs beginning on Saturday as half of the league’s clubs now settle into a long offseason.

While making it to the postseason is a basic goal to set for many teams during training camp in September, perennial contenders often look at the regular season as a several-month tune-up process for a long sprint towards the Stanley Cup.

Beyond just making the playoffs, there’s some meaning into having an exceptionally dominant regular season, with home ice advantage in playoff series’ being granted to the higher-seeded team.

With that said, having guaranteed home ice advantage throughout the playoffs is far from a lock for success. The last Presidents’ Trophy winner (top regular season team) to win the Stanley Cup was the 2012-13 Chicago Blackhawks, who did so in a 48-game, lockout-shortened season.

The last Presidents’ Trophy winner to go all the way after a full 82-game regular season was the 2007-08 Detroit Red Wings, who dispatched Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins in six games in that season’s Stanley Cup Final.

In the land in between missing the playoffs and the Presidents’ Trophy is the sweet spot that most Stanley Cup winners find themselves in – with a 100-point season being a common occurrence among winners.

In a league that rewards two points for a win and one point for an overtime loss, attaining 100 points over the course of an 82-game season is seen as a lock for the Stanley Cup Playoffs – as no team with 97 or more points has ever missed the postseason.

Depending on where a franchise is in their trajectory to success, a 100-point season can be interpreted in a variety of different ways – while it’s simply business as usual for perennial contenders like the Colorado Avalanche and Tampa Bay Lightning, it’s a generational achievement for the Buffalo Sabres.

Only the Utah Mammoth, who are in their second season and are also postseason-bound, has never recorded at least one 100-point season in their franchise history.
