NHL Power Rankings: Which Teams Are Lighting Up the Ice and Which Are Hanging by a Thread After a Quarter Season

4. Anaheim Ducks, 13-7-1
Last week: 5
Sean: 3
Dom: 4
Green flag: Jacob Trouba being worth every penny
We don’t know what’s gotten into Trouba, but he continues to be one of the brightest spots on Anaheim’s blue line. A late-career renaissance like this is a nice bonus for a team on the rise.
Red flag: Pavel Mintyukov not progressing
Two straight healthy scratches and reports about trade demands if he doesn’t play have put Mintyukov’s name top of mind for the week. By Net Rating, his minus-2.2 is last among Ducks defensemen and one of the worst in the league. After a decent rookie season, it’s been disappointing to not see him take the leap.
