Battle squad ranking

I’m just wondering how 1 st place in squad battles can have over a 2100 point lead on 2nd.  I am currently in 4th with all games played and he’s ahead of me by 2154 points

    Hey there!

    A whole breakdown on how Squad Battles works (including Battle Points) can be found here: https://www.ea.com/games/nhl/nhl-20/news/chel-notes-hockey-ultimate-team

    Here's a quick breakdown on Battle Points:

    Battle Points

    Each game played earns Battle Points. Battle Points earned are based on several factors:

    • Difficulty Selected – Earn more Battle Points on higher difficulties
    • Opponent OVR - Earn slightly more points for beating teams with higher OVRs
    • Game Outcome – Earn more points for a Win than for a Loss or OT Loss
      • You’ll also earn bonus points for each Win based on your goal differential (up to +5 goals)
    • Goals Scored – Earn points for each goal scored (up to 5 goals)
    • Shots For – Earn points for each shot taken (up to 20 shots)

    Here’s an example of roughly the points you’ll earn for a 1-0 Win vs. a 2-1 Loss at each difficulty. As you can see, both winning and difficulty have a huge impact on the number of points earned.
