ESPN did a post July 1 ranking. Flames are the highest Canadian team at 8

Canucks and Leafs in the bottom 5
So Anaheim gets applause for "adding depth", but they completely ignore that they lost their #1 defenseman (in terms of TOI), amongst other things. Sorry, but if you replace Beauchemin with Kevin Bieksa of all people, then you're not "trending up" in my opinion.

Also I think Philly is way too low. They still have elite talent up front and a very good goaltender ... they are a better team than they showed last season. They simply had a terrible coach.
