NHL Power Rankings Shock: Early Surprises That Turned the Season Upside Down
22. Nashville Predators, 2-1-2
Sean: 22
Dom: 23
WRONG: Juuse Saros is trending in the wrong direction.
After two decidedly meh seasons in a row, Saros is throwing up a .945 save percentage and is comfortably top 10 in GSAx. Now all Nashville needs him to do is keep it up for another 55 games, which is what they got from him when he was at his Vezina-finalist peak.
23. Ottawa Senators, 2-3-0
Sean: 23
Dom: 24
WRONG: Ottawa doesn’t have a good enough third option behind Brady Tkachuk and Tim Stützle.
Shane Pinto is tied for the league lead in goals with six. Unfortunately for the Senators, they’re going to need him to be a second option for the next 6-8 weeks due to Tkachuk’s thumb injury.
