Power Rankings are for fans of teams that are not in first place to feel like they have a first place team.

Fans of teams that are actually in first place should disregard. Only the Oilers would raise a power rankings banner.

Anything less than 11th, and Boston doesn't finish 2nd. By voting the Flames 11th, they ended up with one less point than the Bruins. So almost certainly intentional.

As Millions would say.... hmmmmm
Millions might have used his other saying:

To be honest, the only time Power Rankings are entertaining is when they are controversial. If they just replicate the reality or even the current standings, then who cares.

Personally I don’t care about power rankings - they don’t matter - it only matters if your team makes the playoffs and wins the Stanley cup. If some nimrod writer in the east wants Boston to be higher than the Flames, I don’t care.

If the power rankings determine who gets into playoffs and at what seed - totally different story.

You would have certainly nodded in agreement with the majority of NHL players (today Athletic article) who found Winnipeg the NHL's worst city to visit. It should be noted Edmonton also made the worst list.

Im going with this. The guys key stuck when he pressed "1" and it went in twice by accident to come up as 11. Simple human error.

Power rankings are stupid and irrelevant anyways. But he isnt the only one forgetting us:
