NHL Power Rankings: Week #10 (2013-14)

Disclaimer: This week's Power Ranks are a result of Wednesday, December 11, 2013 prior to any games played. Ranks may have changed slightly in 48 hours. To keep with consistency, games from last night will be added to next week's (week #11) rankings.

Apologies to those who waited all week for the T.O.A. Week #10 Ranks. In light of recent occurrences, balancing the ranks has become more difficult. As for Week #11, we will push them back to Wednesday instead of Monday to allow teams to aggregate more stats.

This week, Chicago tops out at #1 & teams seem to be settling into there respective roles. We see big jumps from Columbus & Carolina from great play as well as big drops from mediocre performances out of Colorado, N.Y.R., & Nashville. We are a week or two past the first third of the year & teams are entering their mid-season forms. With Sochi 2014 on the way, National teams are finalizing line-ups. This can prove to be a negative with possible injuries & fatigue for some of the league's top teams.

Sorry again for the delay & hope to see you next week for the Week #11 ranks, enjoy!:
