2015–16 AHL season
The 2015–16 AHL season is the 80th season of the American Hockey League. The regular season began on October 9, 2015, and ends on April 17, 2016. The 2016 Calder Cup playoffs follow the conclusion of the regular season.
==Regular season==
On May 12, 2015, the AHL unveiled a new, major realignment of its conferences and divisions for the 2015–16 season, a move made as a result of the relocations of seven franchises, including five teams moving to California, one to Manitoba, and one to Newfoundland and Labrador.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AHL announces alignment for 2015-16 )〕 Mirroring a change the National Hockey League had taken prior to its 2013–14 season, the AHL moved back to having four divisions of seven or eight teams. The Eastern Conference consists of the Atlantic and North Divisions, while the Western Conference consists of the Central and Pacific Divisions.
On June 13, the league commissioner, David Andrews, disclosed that the five California teams will each play 68-game schedule; the other 25 teams (including the two Texas-based teams that share the Pacific division with the California teams) would play 76 games apiece. The implementation of an unbalanced format was seen as a way to ease the California teams' travel costs as well as reducing stretches of 3 games in 3 nights, which can impede player development and hamper attractive forms of play.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=California AHL teams to play 68 games; more from President/CEO )〕
To alleviate the 68/76-game imbalance, the AHL created a new method of ranking its teams and determining playoff seeds. As before, standings points will still be awarded (two points for a win, one point for an overtime or shootout loss, none for a regulation loss). Rather than ranking teams by the total amount of points earned, they will be positioned by their points percentage, determined as the number of points earned divided by points available to them. For example, a team earning one win and one overtime loss after two games would have a .750 points percentage (3 points earned divided by 4 points available).〔
