If you’re a hockey fan and you love power rankings, you got some great news a few days ago: The Friday rankings have returned.
There’s a common misconception out there that there’s some sort of rivalry between those rankings and these ones. But there isn’t, because we’re trying to do different things. These rankings are the long-term view, while the Friday boys are more of an immediate snapshot. I do my thing, Dom and Other Sean do theirs, and the readers win. A rivalry? Not even close.
They were a few weeks late to the season, though, especially since we’ve already been hard at work on two weeks’ worth of rankings under our belt.
