I know, I know, power rankings usually suck when they're opinion-based, but TSN seems to have adopted a more stats-based approach?
Regardless, they have some nice things to say!
Quote:
The Calgary Flames are on fire, pun intended. They have won 10 games in a row and are building a comfortable lead atop the Pacific Division. The Flames might only be eighth in points percentage, but the only team we are putting ahead of Calgary in our rankings right now is Florida.
Former Panther Jacob Markstrom is running laps around everyone in the shutout department with eight, twice as many as any other goaltender. Offensively, the line of Johnny Gaudreau, Elias Lindholm, and Matthew Tkachuk has been the best in the league. Calgary has scored 49 even-strength goals when those three players share the ice, easily the most of any three-man unit, as no one else has more than 35.
Calgary fully deserves to be the top-ranked Canadian team and they are making a case to be the top-ranked team overall.
