With the Penguins having a day Sunday game tomorrow, our weekend feature to check out the standings in the division has been moved up a day. There have been a good bit of changes from even last week, so let’s get into it!
As has been trending for a while, the Carolina Hurricanes and Pittsburgh Penguins are now first and second, respectively, in points% on the season. The New York Rangers and especially Washington Capitals have fallen off the pace in recent days. This picture could be different in a month or two, but for now the most balanced and strongest teams in the division at the halfway point definitely looks like the Canes and Pens.
