FNHL POWER RANKINGS: TOP 16
« on: February 18, 2013, 12:53:02 PM »
Not going to make this too complicated but based on record, Points For, roster potential, and in some cases 2011-12 performance.

Great to see formerly neglected franchises spring back to life this season with active owners!

Here are your TOP 16 teams of FNHL after 4 wks into the 2012-13 season.

    * 4-0 record
    * 1st in Points For 482.3
    * Starts Corey Crawford + the Leafs' goaltending tandem of Ben Scrivens + James Reimer
    * 2011-12 Western Conference Finalist

2. Minnesota Wild  :MIN-NHL:
    * 2-2 record (would be 4-0 without 2wk line-up penalty)
    * potentially 1st in Points For if not for 2wk penalty
    * boasts Craig Anderson, Jonas Hiller and Scott Clemmensen in net
    * 2011-12 Stanley Cup Champion roster

SLEEPING GIANTS
Teams that have fire power + the bodies on the roster to crack the top 16 but don't currently have a winning record due to a difficult schedule or just flat outta luck:

A. Washington Capitals  :WAS-NHL:

My Sens lost Matt Read for 6 weeks so that will hurt. As for Holtby he'd be amazing under a new coach like Lindy Ruff. :>

  • Daddy: The point was DirecTV never got in your pockets and it was a rip-off but they had a monopoly on the product. Im not loving all the streaming games but DTV will be paying $$$.
    Yesterday at 05:48:22 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: The new iteration with Youtube TV isnt the greatest either but an improvement on Directtv version

    Yesterday at 10:49:01 PM
