Tier One Spotlight: Colombus Blue Jackets

"​No Bobrovsky, Duchene, Dzingel or Panarin yet, the Blue Jackets still find themselves in a playoff spot in the powerhouse Metro division this year. John Tortorella is doing a tremendous job with what he has and are 8-1-1 in their last ten games bringing them into the top ten."

Tier Two Spotlight: Vancouver Canucks

Of all the teams in the Pacific Division, you probably wouldn’t have picked the Canucks to be leading the way this season. Arizona and Vegas have cooled off since their start and Vancouver continues to put together wins. Quinn Hughes is looking like a staple piece for years to come, but the play of Jacob Markstrom, who should be a Vezina candidate at this point, is what really puts them on the cusp of tier one."

​31. Detroit Red Wings 12-38

Tier Three Spotlight: Buffalo Sabres

"The Buffalo Sabres for the last two seasons have started out strong, giving their loyal fans a reason to finally believe. But, once again, it was just false hope. Jack Eichel is a superstar but when your teammate Jeff Skinner is making almost the same amount of money and only has 11 goals, that’s a problem. That isn’t their only problem that continues to come to the surface. They continue to fall down the power rankings and don’t be surprised if they’re in the bottom five by next week."
