Gio's Tier 1 Rankings:1. Boston Bruins (44-14; 100 pts) 2. St. Louis Blues (42-19; 94 pts) 3. Tampa Bay Lightning (43-21; 92 pts) 4. Colorado Avalanche (42-20; 92 pts) 5. Washington Capitals (41-20; 90 pts) 6. Philadelphia Flyers (41-21; 89 pts) 7. Vegas Golden Knights (39-24; 86 pts) 8. Pittsburgh Penguins (40-23; 86 pts) 9. Dallas Stars (37-24; 82 pts) 10. Edmonton Oilers (37-25; 83 pts) Tier One Spotlight: Philadelphia Flyers "Before the COVID-19 outbreak, the Philadelphia Flyers were ascending the NHL standings quickly. Alain Vigneault easily could have won coach of the year if it weren't for this pause. If the NHL does resume, let’s see if the Flyers can pick up where they left off." #NHLBruins #STLBlues #GoBolts #GoAvsGo #ALLCAPS #FlyorDie #VegasBorn #LetsGoPens #GoStars #LetsGoOilers Gio's Tier 2 Rankings: 11. Carolina Hurricanes (38-25; 81 pts) 12. Toronto Maple Leafs (36-25; 81 pts) 13. New York Islanders (35-23; 80 pts) 14. Columbus Blue Jackets (33-22; 81 pts) 15. New York Rangers (37-28; 79 pts) 16.

Minnesota Wild (35-27; 77 pts) Tier Two Spotlight: Winnipeg Jets "Just like the Flyers, The Winnipeg Jets were on fire before the NHL season was paused. Winners of 6 in their last 10, they were shaping into form to make a final playoff push. Add Paul Maurice as a top candidate, alongside Vigneault, for coach of the year… If the season resumes.." #LetsGoCanes #LeafsForever #Isles #CBJ #PlayLikeANewYorker #GoJetsGo #Flames #FlaPanthers #Canucks #MNWild Gio's Tier 3 Rankings:21. Nashville Predators (35-26; 78 pts) 22. Chicago Blackhawks (32-30; 72 pts) 23. Arizona Coyotes (33-29; 74 pts) 24. Los Angeles Kings (29-35; 64 pts) 25. New Jersey Devils (28-29; 68 pts) 26.

Detroit Red Wings (17-49; 39 pts) Tier Three Spotlight: Los Angeles Kings "The Los Angeles Kings are well into a rebuild (assuming they are) but lately, they were playing spoiler to teams needing points to get into the playoffs. Riding a 7 game winning streak before COVID, the Los Angeles Kings deserve some love for not completely giving up on the season." #Preds #Blackhawks #Yotes #GoKingsGo #NJDevils #GoHabsGo #Sabres50 #LetsGoDucks #goSENSgo #SJSharks #LGRW

Toronto Maple Leafs (35-23; 78 pts) Tier One Spotlight: Vegas Golden Knights "The Vegas Golden Knights have found their way back to the top of the Pacific and finally are putting together the season everyone thought they would have. Adding Robin Lehner at the deadline was a great move to solidify the goalie tandem heading into the playoffs. Watch for Vegas to make a deep run into April." #STLBlues #NHLBruins #GoBolts #ALLCAPS #GoAvsGo #LetsGoFlyers #VegasBorn #GoStars #LetsGoPens #LeafsForever Tier 211. New York Islanders (35-21; 78 pts) 12. Edmonton Oilers (35-23; 78 pts) 13. New York Rangers (35-26; 74 pts) 14. Carolina Hurricanes (35-24; 75 pts) 15. Columbus Blue Jackets (32-21; 78 pts) 16.

Minnesota WIld (32-26; 71 pts) Tier Two Spotlight: The New York Rangers "The New York Rangers have turned around just as quick as anyone this year. Artemi “Breadman” Panarin could grab a couple Hart Trophy votes as they look to get into the Stanley Cup Playoffs too. Surprisingly, the Metropolitan division has been the strongest, and the Rangers haven’t backed down." #Isles #LetsGoOilers #NYR #TakeWarning #CBJ #Preds #Canucks #Flames #FlaPanthers #MNWild Tier 321. Arizona Coyotes (32-27; 72 pts) 22. Winnipeg Jets (33-28; 72 pts) 23. Montreal Canadiens (30-28; 69 pts) 24. Chicago Blackhawks (29-28; 66 pts) 25. Buffalo Sabres (29-28; 66 pts) 26.

Detroit Red WIngs (15-48; 35 pts) Tier Three Spotlight: Montreal Canadiens "Marc Bergevin and the Montreal Canadiens did a wonderful job at the trade deadline flipping guys like Marco Scandella and Ilya Kovalchuck for draft picks. Now, with a ton of picks in this upcoming draft, the Canadiens have to hit on them. They aren’t mathematically out of the playoffs, but playing well into next season can give fans hope to look forward to their future." #OurPack #GoJetsGo #GoHabsGo #Blackhawks #Sabres #NJDevils #LetsGoDucks #GoKingsGo #SJSharks #LGRW
