Ligue Magnus seasons

The 2011–12 Ligue Magnus season was the 91st season of the Ligue Magnus, the top level of ice hockey in France. Fourteen teams participated in the league, and Dragons de Rouen won both the regular season title, and the Coupe Magnus, the postseason championship that earned the team the title "Champions of France".[1][2] The Scorpions de Mulhouse were elevated to the league from Division 1 at the end of the season,[3][4] and the Bisons de Neuilly-sur-Marne were relegated to Division 1 after finishing the regular season with only three wins and losing the relegation playoff with the Ours de Villard-de-Lans.[5]

Rules

A win, whether in regulation, overtime, or shootout, is worth two points. A loss in overtime or shootout is worth one point. A loss in regulation is worth zero points. During the regular season, every team plays every other team twice, once at home and once away, for a total of 26 games each.[6] During the playoffs, the top four ranked teams automatically enter the quarterfinals, while the fifth through twelfth ranked teams play a preliminary series to determine the quarterfinalists. All preliminary, quarterfinal, and semifinal series are best of five, while the finals are best of seven.[2]

The bottom two ranked teams at the end of the regular season play a relegation series, best of five games, with the winner remaining in the Ligue Magnus, and the loser being relegated to Division 1.[2] The winner of Division 1 is elevated to the Ligue Magnus at the end of the season.[3]

Ranking

Teams are ranked by their point score, with ties broken as follows:

  1. Points scored in matches between the two teams
  2. Number of games lost by forfeit
  3. Number of goals scored in regulation between the two teams
  4. Goal differential, overall
  5. Goal differential in pool play
  6. Number of goals in all games in pool play

If there was a tie after these criteria, a playoff would be held on neutral ice.[6]
