  Science Fair Projects - Presidents' Trophy
The Presidents' Trophy is an award presented by the National Hockey League to the team which finished with the best record in the entire league during the regular season.
While less than half of all Presidents' Trophy winners have gone on to win the Stanley Cup, it remains the most likely position to produce the cup winner, as the Presidents' Trophy winner is guaranteed home-ice advantage in all four rounds of the Stanley Cup playoffs, provided the team advances that far.
In the Original Six era, the same criteria now observed for winning the Presidents' Trophy was used to award the Prince of Wales Trophy.

 Worth the effort? The Red Wings are the latest Presidents' Trophy winner to make an early exit from the postseason ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The same destiny was accorded other Presidents' Trophy winners who met a premature demise in the postseason, including the 1997-98 Dallas Stars, 1996-97 Colorado Avalanche and two consecutive Detroit squads in 1995 and 1996.
Interestingly, the tables were turned the next year (1996-97) when the Avalanche won the Presidents' Trophy on the strength of 49 wins but lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champion Red Wings, who managed 11 legs wins during the regular season than their rivals in Denver.
The 1997-98 campaign saw the Dallas Stars emerge as the winner of the Presidents' Trophy but in the playoffs it was again all Detroit as the Red Wings battled to their second consecutive championship.

The Presidents' Trophy, given to the team with the most regular-season points, hasn't been a natural precursor to Stanley Cup glory.
That includes the 2005-06 Presidents' winners, the Detroit Red Wings, who were unceremoniously ousted by the Edmonton Oilers in six games in the first round of the playoffs.
While Presidents' Trophy winners may not always succeed that particular season, there is a strong correlation with Stanley Cup success within the same era, with many teams becoming the regular season champs a season or two before going all the way in the playoffs, seemingly learning from the hard knocks of previous years.

So I was a little ticked off, but I tried simming a season and although didn't get the presidents trophy, I did win the cup again, but still didn't get the single achievement.
I simmed a season so that I'd win the President's Trophy (best record in the league) and won the Stanley Cup, I got the Stanley Cup achievement but no dominance.
