NHL Power Rankings: Week #8 (2017-18)

We're back with T.O.A.'s 2017-18 NHL Power Rankings! This week we're back with a late one from games that took place on Friday and Saturday.

The Lightning continue their assault on the NHL even though they took some losses this week. The Blues are now President Trophy leaders, but not for TOA! The Pens seem to be showing a little bit of that negative side to the initial anomaly, further justifying their ranking but not reflective in their record. We're starting to get a clearer picture as to the strengths of each team as well as their weaknesses.

This ends Week 8. Remember that our blog has an up-to-date Twitter profile that you can follow @TOA_Sports.
