Welcome back to The Puck Under The Sun’s NHL power ranks! The new year is now in full swing and what you’ll see below is the ratings of the strongest to weakest teams after the month of October.
In this rank, all games from Friday, 11/1/19 are included. No games/stats from Saturday, 11/2/19 are present. To give you the rundown again, we’re using basic stats like goals for and goal differential along with exotic stats like Corsi and Fenwick percentages. This algorithm is currently in version 5.0 and gets reviewed all the time. The newest version include Corsi For % and Fenwick For % from hockey-reference.com.
As for our Cats, you can see that we’re in the middle of the pack. But over the course of the last few games, I think we’re ready to break out. See where your team is ranked below:
