Panem Hockey League

The Panem Hockey League (PHL) is a hockey league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the PHL West and the PHL East. The PHL's 26-week regular season runs from the first week of October to the first week of April, with each team playing 82 games. Following the conclusion of the regular season, eight teams from each conference (the top three of each division, plus the next two highest in points in the conference) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Panem Cup, played between the champions of the East and West.

The PHL was formed in the year 614 ADD. Today, the PHL has the highest average attendance of any professional sports league in Panem. The Panem Cup is among the biggest club sporting events in the known world, and individual Panem Cup games account for many of the most watched television programs in Panemian history.

The team with the most Panem Cup championships in the original era was the District 1 Oilers with three. The team with the most Panem Cup championships in the new era is the District 7 Blazers with six. The current PHL champions are the District 2 Battalion, who defeated the District 9 Prairie Dogs 4-2 in the Panem Cup Finals.

The PHL's minor league is called the Circenses Hockey League, which every PHL team has an affiliation with.

The PHL Entry Draft, held every June 22nd, consists of players drafted from the Alpha League and the Bravo League.

Original Era
These were the original 18 teams of the original era, from PHL seasons 1 through 10. The top six teams of each conference made the playoffs in this era, meaning only three teams missed the playoffs each season.

Western Conference
[a] : The Capitol was considered to be large enough that it warranted three teams.

New Era
These were the total 32 teams of the new Era, with some expansions being added to larger branch off settlements. They were aligned into divisions regarding their location in Panem, all named after the most influential families in the Capitol. Most of the original 18 teams remain today, although some have moved to new locations, while others rebranded or folded.
