Hey guys! This week's write-up is pretty bare-bones as I was really sick this past weekend so I really have not had the chance to do too much. Look forward to next week as there will be a full one through thirty league power rankings complimented by an in depth write up by yours truly. Sorry again for being late and as always I hope you guys enjoy. We are back with Week 5 Power Rankings! If you would like to check out last week's rankings you can do so HERE Myself, @ScootZ. @niner80rice, @xShauN88, @FR0BE 8, @Oso-Sic, @KingClutchlx77l, @NH4JP, @PTPiper and @CUMMINSx7 have joined forces to form the "expert" panel and will be ranking teams weekly.To be as unbiased as possible, the five guys from their respective conference rank the OPPOSING conference. That means West ranks East and vice versa. The numbers are then averaged and voila, the final power rankings are created. The rankings themselves should NOT be considered season predictions but rather rankings that will change week to week based on current roster strength, roster moves, how the team is currently playing and overall record. Having a good week doesn't guarantee a rise in the rankings and coming off a bad week doesn't necessarily mean a fall.Note that all opinions/comments in the article are that of my OWN and do NOT reflect the groups'. You don't have to agree with my opinions or these rankings and you are more than welcome to prove us all wrong. WESTERN CONFERENCE 1. Anaheim Ducks SAME 2. Dallas Stars UP 3 3.
