TPUTS NHL Power Rankings 2/24/19

~ Alejandro Diaz

Editors Note: Sorry this is so late in publishing. I was busy.

Do you want to know where your team stands in true strength? Well you’ve come to the right place! These power ranks incorporate a variety of stats that get crunched to produce as accurate as possible “strength” number for each team (known as “power index”).

In this rank, all games from Saturday, 2/23/19 are included. No games/stats from Sunday, 2/24/19 are present. Using basic stats like goals for and goal differential along with exotic stats like Corsi and Fenwick percentages, this list provides what teams are truly in form and those that may be hiding as a contender that’ll fall short come playoff time. Hope you enjoy!:
