Some things before I get into the regular season results. In the WBHA it’s 3 points for a win. 0 points for a loss. 2 points for an overtime or shootout win. 1 point for an overtime or shootout loss.
There are 3 trophies for regular season records. The first is the California Cup. This is awarded to the team from California with the best regular season record. The second is the Nevada Cup. This is awarded to the team from Nevada with the best regular season record. The third is the Taylor Cup. This is awarded to the team with the best overall regular season record. This trophy was named after the West Coast Hockey League championship trophy which later became the ECHL’s western conference championship trophy.
This season the battle between the Reno Jacks and the Carson City Capitals for the last playoff spot was heated. It came down to the last week of the season. Carson City would lose and Reno would record a shutout. It will be a tough battle for Reno in the playoffs because they struggled to find wins this season. Reno only had 2 wins all season. Reno only got into the playoffs because they were able to force overtime at least 5 times (which is half the season). With the right player Reno could be a top 3 team.
On the other end of the spectrum, Truckee Stags won the regular season title. They had the same number of loses as Reno had wins. They finished the season with only one more point then Tahoe. This is impressive considering they had a disappointing preseason. So, disappointing that they came in last.
