2016-17: 29th overall, 29th GF, 24th GA
2017-18: 26th overall, 27th GF, 26th GA
2018-19: 23rd overall, 25th GF, 20th GA
2019-20: 19th overall, 8th GF, 19th GA (made postseason)
2020-21: 24th overall, 24th GF, 26th GA
2021-22: 18th overall, 18th GF, 9th GA
2022-23: 22nd overall, 13th GF, 24th GA
2023-24 (as of March 23): 1st overall, 4th GF, 4th GA

# of teams in the last 50 years that finished 1st overall the season after missing the playoffs: 1 (the 93/94 Rangers, who won Presidents' Trophies in '92 and '94 and missed the playoffs the season in-between)
Nobody but me cares but it is a fantastic race for the President's Trophy this year with seven teams within three points -- NY Rangers (100 points), Dallas (99), Boston (99), Vancouver (98), Florida (97), Colorado (97) and Carolina (97).
