TSN: Power Rankings

[Beantown Beatdown]

We're number 1! We're number 1!

It's only TSN but it's always nice to see our Bruins at the top of any list

Don't care and neither should you.

Sportsnet still has them at # 2 behind St. Louis:

Climb to the highest tree in the forest. Play dead. Flail like an upstream salmon. Strike a big stance and growl and hope.

Employ whatever tactic you vaguely remember reading in a movie somewhere at cub scouts’ camp. It won’t matter. The Bruins are coming, and there’s no dodging their wrath.

A perennial Eastern Conference force is rounding into form at the right time, sharpening its teeth for a springtime feeding. The Bruins’ current winning streak — 10 wins, one for each claw — ties Anaheim for the NHL’s longest this season and has catapulted the club ahead of the Pittsburgh Penguins for tops in the East.

The winning streak is Boston’s longest since November 2011, and it’s notable because a team known for stingy defence and incredible goaltending has scored at least four times in eight of those victories.

Don't read it then and keep YOUR opinion to yourself.

These rankings mean nothing, it's not even thread-worthy.

Thank you, I was just going to let it go

And yet you both felt it was necessary to come in here and post.

Not about the rankings. Its about respecting opinions.

I'm sorry... Didn't mean to offend you... I know they mean nothing... Just nice to look at... Wow

Maybe we should all clear things with those 2 before we start any new threads just to make sure they approve.

Really

I don't know why people get so moany about power rankings. They're fun. We all know they don't give out awards for power rankings, but I'd like to think sports can be more fun than just crunching numbers blindly like some people seem to get enjoyment out of. It's just something fun we can talk about and use as some comparison. The regular season doesn't determine the champion, we all know, but we still do play 82 games a season and it shouldn't horribly offend people to want to compare and rank teams during it.

 

[Coach Parker]

The team is getting the respect they deserve and the OP is pointing out that there is an article out there that you can read about a team you follow.

Thanks!
