    Hitchcock is not the answer.

    I've never seen it work out when a team makes a mid-season coaching hire of someone who has "retired" twice already.

    Nothing like bringing in a 62 year old coach to really get the players to play now!

    I follow NHL very closely don't always go by records it's early in the season still i have power rankings i do for each team...As of today my top 5 teams in order are..

    1. Sharks
    2.TB ( will see how they hold up with key injury)
    3.Toronto
    4.Wild
    5.Avs

    Don't have preds in top 5 (they are actually 6th)great record but from my numbers they will be falling off here soon and already have this last week. Just 1 mans opinion.
