Concept standings update from approved demo results rather than a separate hand-maintained table.

One governed result

Synthetic scores are clearly labeled. In RootHockey, an approved game result can drive standings, playoff readiness, history, and reporting from the same record.

How RootHockey handles it

RootHockey treats standings as the output of governed match results, not as a separate table someone must maintain.

The public view is fast and readable, while authorized operators retain the context required to resolve score questions.

Why this is better than a page clone

The public explanation, structured records, permissions, status, and next action are designed as one experience. MSE can prove the workflow in a pilot without pretending its incumbent systems vanish overnight.
