NHL Power Rankings: Unexpected Upsets and Rookie Revelations Shake Up the Season
24. Washington Capitals, 8-8-1

It’s been a frustrating stretch for the Capitals — since Oct. 25, they’re 29th in the league with a shooting percentage of 9.11. Ryan Leonard continues to acquit himself well, though; Washington is winning his minutes, he’s producing nearly two points per 60 and he put seven shots on net against the Panthers on Thursday, partially on a line with Dylan Strome.
25. San Jose Sharks, 8-7-3
Last week: 27
Sean: 25
Dom: 25
The Oilers got some good minutes from John Klingberg last season, but those haven’t carried over to his new team. He’s got the worst expected goal share on the Sharks by a large margin (33 percent), and that’s not solely because of brutal defensive impacts.
