Thread: ESPN NHL Power Rankings - Kings #!

NHL Hockey Power Rankings - Week 3 - National Hockey League - ESPN

Finally power rankings that make sense.

Wild should not be top 10 though.

And yet on TSN the Kings are ranked 10 because of Kopitar hurting his knee. Crazy Canadians.

We're #!

WE'RE #!111

I don't know, they look like an offensive juggernaut. We know they're solid in goal, so if the defense can hold up, that might be a very good team this year.

The Kings steamrolled each opponent on the way to the Stanley Cup and the Canadians still don't believe. I was pissed when I read the rankings on TSN yesterday. This makes me feel better but, then again, it's ESPN.

They were terrible in the second half of the season last year, last in points after Jan 1. I don't think Suter and Parise should put them in the top 10. Perhaps a bubble playoff team.

Any team that wins outside of Canada either cheats, got lucky, or because it's rigged.

Only rankings I see are from September.
