Consensus NHL Power Rankings – Week Eight

Six different teams were ranked at the top by nine media outlets. Since we were able to get nine rankings this week, we dropped the highest and lowest point total for each team, taking the middle seven scores to come up with our consensus.

To get our consensus point total, we awarded the top team 30 points, the second team 29 points, third team 28 points, etc. Added each teams total points and divided by the number of outlets used.

** Keep in mind the dates the rankings were posted, and in some cases, they may have been submitted to their editors the day before it was posted **
