NHL Power Rankings | Analytics-Based Ratings

Our NHL power rankings use model-derived strength ratings. Each team is rated by their predicted win probability against a league-average opponent on neutral ice—the same models that power our game predictions and playoff simulations.

Strength rating = average of P(win at home vs average) and P(win away vs average). Percentiles compare each category against the league.

Trend compares ranks to one week ago. Narratives are generated based on performance profile across offense, defense, goaltending, and recent form.
