They have flaws, but wow are they fun to watch, and it’s exciting that they will be in the playoff discussions for the coming weeks. Not only did they have a solid week on the ice (3-0-1), they look like a team that understands exactly what they are right now, and what they can be if they continue to buy in. Of all the teams in this section, though, the one I’m most excited about are the Buffalo Sabres.

The Florida Panthers also had a big comeback win against the Boston Bruins, which is keeping them right in the hunt as they prepare to host the All-Star festivities. Of the risers, the Nashville Predators had the best week, as they won three straight and still have a number of games in hand on their opponents who are in front of them in the Wild-Card chase. The New York Islanders also are starting to get things back on track after being the coldest team in the league for the better part of a month, which saved them from falling into the sellers’ section of this list. Right now, the Pittsburgh Penguins find themselves in a playoff spot, but given how much they have been struggling in recent weeks, their hold on this spot is tenuous at best. Some of the hottest and coldest teams find themselves in this portion of the Rankings, which is causing a lot of movement in an area that I expected to stabilize more before the All-Star Game. Buffalo Sabres 26-19-4, 56 Points (Last Ranking: 21) Florida Panthers 24-22-6, 54 Points (Last Ranking: 19)ġ7. Nashville Predators 24-18-6, 54 Points (Last Ranking: 20)ġ8. Pittsburgh Penguins 24-16-9, 57 Points (Last Ranking: 17)ġ9. New York Islanders 25-22-5, 55 Points (Last Ranking: 18)Ģ0. Outside of them, there were a lot of close games, impressive wins, and enough losses that no one really hurt their draft stock either, so they succeeded on all accounts before the All-Star Break. Louis Blues and Montreal Canadiens had a rough time, where they lost four straight and three straight, respectively, while seeing their slim playoff chances slip farther away. Overall, this was a fun week for the teams at the bottom of the rankings, for the most part. ![]() The Anaheim Ducks had one of their best weeks of the 2022-23 season, where they won three-straight games. However, the biggest movers are the Anaheim Ducks, who went on a three-game winning streak, including a big win against the Colorado Avalanche. ![]() Pretty much every team secured at least one meaningful win, with the likes of the Chicago Blackhawks easily knocking off the Calgary Flames, and even the lowly Columbus Blue Jackets pulling off an overtime win against the Edmonton Oilers. Well, the bottom of the rankings has been an exciting place this week.
