NHL Power Rankings – Where Every Team Ranks After Weekend 1
The first weekend of the NHL’s abbreviated season is in the books – nice to have the game we love back isn’t it? While we may not be ready to crown a champion just yet, the first few games offered us a glimpse into what we can maybe expect during this sprint to the finish.
Wings Try To Avenge Opening Game Thrashing – In Columbus Monday Night
I know, I know – not the sexiest of matches to start the 2012 season but it is televised nationally in the US and Canada. I promise there will be more interesting matchups to come but I digress. The Wings certainly looked vulnerable in their opener – the omission of Nicklas Lidstrom and Thomas Holmstrom look like they are looming large.
A rematch of last year’s AFC Championship won by the Patriots…barely. New England has the advantage of being at home but also should not be overlooking this opponent. Baltimore has to stay focused after fantastic road win last week.

The Falcons pulled victory from the jaws of defeat against Seattle on Sunday. Now they get a visit from a San Francisco team brimming with confidence and probably actually thrilled not to face the Seahawks once more.
Now that the nasty lockout is over we can finally stop hearing the words “proposal”, “escrow” and “revenue” and finally focus on what is really important – the Stanley Cup. The top 10 favorites are littered with some familiar teams but offseason moves have allowed a few fringe teams to emerge on the Cup radar this season.
Another rematch to close out the Divisional Round of the playoffs. Houston was embarrassed on their first visit to Foxborough. I expect they will play better but the end result is likely the same.
Last week Seattle put an end to Washington’s resurgence. This week they are looking to do the same to the NFC’s top seed in Atlanta.
A rematch of the season opener that San Francisco won at Green Bay…easily. Stakes are obviously higher this time around as both teams look to make it to the Super Bowl.

Ravens won but gave up lots of yards to the Colts who just couldn’t convert when it mattered most. Are they going to be able to have the same success against a Denver team clicking on all cylinders?
This year’s GoDaddy.com Bowl features a talented Sun Belt Conference team locking horns with a MAC outfit coming off a memorable campaign.
That 2012 Beltway (Nationals-Orioles) World Series never got off the drawing board when the Orioles and Nationals flamed out early in the playoffs.
The last game of Wild Card weekend will probably be the most compelling. A couple of athletic rookie QBs looking to lead their teams to a championship. I like it.
People want to make a big deal about the Baltimore historical angle for this one but who cares. What is more interesting is whether Ray Lewis is going to let a rookie QB end his career. How much more Luck is left in that horseshoe?
A rematch of the season finale between these two divisional rivals. Now both teams are in win or go home mode, will the Packers be able to corral Adrian Peterson and grab the victory?
