4. Colorado Avalanche

The Avalanche are still the Avalanche. While they are third in the Central Division, they are still a top-four team in our power rankings. In their last five games, they have four wins, including a 4-1 win against Carolina. During their game on Monday night against St. Louis, they ran into a hot goaltender in Jordan Binnington.

3. New Jersey Devils

The New Jersey Devils were my pick for the top spot this week, only seems right when you are on a nine-game win streak to be the top team in the league. new Jersey started the year 3-3-0 and anytime you have your fans chat an apology to your coach it is pretty remarkable.

For context, when the season started, the crowd in New Jersey chanted for Lindy Ruff to be fired. During one of their most recent games, the crowd chanted an apology to Ruff as the team has been one of the best to watch since their poor start.

2. Vegas Golden Knights

Vegas looks like the real deal after missing the playoffs in 2021-22. Jack Eichel has nine goals and 19 points and Chandler Stephenson is not that far behind with 16. This team might not be the top team in the league, but they are the top threat in the Western Conference.

1. Boston Bruins

Finally, we get to the Boston Bruins. Boston is our first team to hold the top spot for multiple weeks, as they also were the top team in week three. The team has won all nine of their home games this year, a franchise record and they now have Charlie McAvoy back on the ice after missing the first month of the season. This team is well-positioned for success in 2023.

We will be back on Monday with your week six power rankings!
