Pennant Chase strength rating

Below is Pennant Chase's power ranking. It's based on the Real Stats of your team, and pretty much based on rank. PC doesnt know how they'll play or how you manage, it's just looking at numbers. Some teams listed here in the top ten will miss playoffs, teams listed in the bottom ten will do well. So take this for what it's worth. Just PC opinion of your team based on whatever stats it looks at. We've already seen many times teams at the bottom go far and teams at the top fizzle out. PC is looking at Real Stats, which never tell the whole story.
