Here's the breakdown:

6 games vs. teams in their division (6x4=24)

4 games vs. teams from other two divisions in the conference (4x10=40)

1-2 games vs. each team from the other conference (18 games against 15 teams)

24+40+18=82

Each team plays 41 home games and 41 away games each season.

The best 8 teams in each conference make the playoffs. 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 7, etc. The winner of each conference plays each other in the Stanley Cup Final. The winner of that is the winner if the NHL that year.

How can an NFL team play 16 games in season if there is only 15 other teams in their conference?

In any given season an nfl team plays every team in its division twice. Then the schedule of who else they play, within their conference, is on a cycle. Every year it alternates to a different division. Then the team also play one of the four divisions from the other conference. Now they have 14 games. The remaining two games are played against one team from the remaining two divisions in their conference based on schedule. And that's 16.

Where can you find the 2010-2011 NFL schedule?

The NFL schedules aren't made until after the Super Bowl each season. However because of the current schedule format you can know who any team will play for 14 of their games for any particular year into the future. Each NFL team will have 2 games each versus their three division opponents, so that is six games you will know every year. Each division will play one entire division from the other conference, they will play each division from the other conference every four years. Each division will play an entire division within their own conference, meaning every team will play each division from their own conference every three years. The last two teams you will have to play are the other teams in your conference who finished in the same place in their division as you did in yours. I will use the former champion Pittsburgh Steelers to show an example. Here is who they played in 2010: Their own division : 2 games vs. the Ravens, 2 games vs the Bengals, 2 games vs the Browns The AFC North plays the NFC North this year so they will play: Vikings, Packers, Bears, Lions The AFC North plays the AFC West this year so they will play : Chiefs, Chargers, Broncos and Raiders this year. The Steelers finished 1st last season so they will face the other two teams who finished first in their divisions in the AFC last year : Titans and Dolphins

How does NFL schedule games?

Quoted from cbs sportsline press release May 2001. ....Another plus for most of the owners is the new scheduling format, under which every team will meet every other at least once in four years. There will be six home-and-home divisional games; four against teams in another division within a conference; and four more against a division in the other conference on a rotating basis. The final two games will be against conference teams based on the previous year's standings -- first against first, second against second, and so on.

How many games does each team play in the American hockey league during regular seasonm?

It depends on the division and conference. Teams in the same division play each other more often, followed by teams in the same conference, and then they may play teams in the other conference only once or twice per year. I think they play 6 games against each team in their division and I don't think there is a set number for any other teams, but the NHL is looking to make it more consistant.


What is the record you have to have to make the NFL playoffs?

Playoff berths are awarded according to conference ranking, not records. The top six seeds in each conference make the playoffs, no matter what their records are. That includes the four division winners and two wild card teams (the non-division winners with the two best records). In theory, it's possible to not win a single game and still make the playoffs! Every team in a division would have to go 0-10-6, with every team tying every other team in the division and losing all their games outside the division. Strength of schedule would be the first tiebreaker to kick in to determine a division winner.
