NHL Weekend Rankings: The Shocking Stories Everyone’s Buzzing About—But Are They True?
Also: Brad Marchand, still weird.
4. Winnipeg Jets (4-1-0, +9) – Ideally, our top five shouldn’t have three teams from the same division in it. It happened a few times last year with the Jets, Stars and Avalanche, and I can’t promise we’ll be able to avoid it this year. But we do for one week, as the Jets slip into the Stars’ spot on the strength of an impressive start.
3. Vegas Golden Knights (4-0-2, +8) – The Jack Eichel MVP watch is well and truly on, as he leads the scoring race with 15 points in just six games. That puts him on a 205-point pace, which is obviously ridiculous — regression to the mean tells us he’s unlikely to end up with over 200. But yeah, that top six in Vegas is terrifying right now.
