It's Thanksgiving week. Oh, sorry, I forgot the NHL's power rankings: American Thanksgiving week.
Fill out your plate with these 31 Thanksgiving foods that perfectly describe the 31 teams of the NHL, while we are decadent and delicious in this week's Power Rankings. Do not forget that these proposals are voted on by a group of hockey experts here at ESPN.
Enjoy your meal!
1. Predators of Nashville
Previous ranking: 1
The Predators are the kings of the Thanksgiving plate: perfectly prepared stuffing. All the ingredients work because the base of the recipe is solid. Mix in some sausages. Hit him with green stuff. Heck, add a catfish. Preferably, wear one of those tiny cowboy hats. It's perfect.
Ethan McClean, 10 years old and suffering from Duchenne muscular dystrophy, thought that he was going to live some of his hockey dreams. This ended up being a lot more.
Hockey is a violent sport, but these teams have experienced the worst. From the "panic room" to "keep calm", we place them in four groups.
Of course, Cam Atkinson, Marie-Philip Poulin and others have had great weeks. But they could not surpass that young mite of the Delaware Patriots.

2. Toronto Maple Leafs
Previous ranking: 3
The Leafs are that Thanksgiving dinner that you have prepared with a Michelin-starred restaurant. For example, the meals are already good and gradually improve. But then your rich friend will tell you: "I ordered six dishes at Chez Tavares" and each dish is like a small explosion of joy probably covered with truffle oil.
3. Tampa Bay Lightning
Previous ranking: 2
The flashes are trendy apple pie. Oh, man, think about it: tasty apples, a sticky filling, a delectable crust, warmed to the right temperature to get married to that scoop of vanilla ice cream that overcomes it. On paper, it's perfection … but what happens if the apples are too ripe? And if the crust breaks at the last minute? What will happen if Andrei Vasilevskiy breaks his foot again in May ?! So what?!
4. San Jose Sharks
Previous ranking: 5
Sharks are a Turducken. They will just continue to force into spectacular and ostentatious pieces of meat until this meal is a winner. Moreover, we are pretty sure Brent Burns has a Turducken living in his menagerie of fantastic beasts.
5. Winnipeg Jets
Previous ranking: 7
The Jets are veriohukainen, or blood pancakes, a delicacy in which 400 ml of pork blood is mixed with milk, flour, molasses, a small onion and butter to create purple disks rich in iron and to marry with reindeer meat. And this is absolutely the last time we let Patrik Laine design the Thanksgiving menu.
6. Minnesota Wild
Previous ranking: 6
Nature are Pan of green beans. It contains a bunch of old, weird stuff and it's not really the most appealing dish on the table, but it's inexplicably delicious every season. Just do not expect to reach a second round.

7. Boston Bruins
Previous ranking: 4
The mists are sweet potatoes covered with marshmallows, a dish so controversial that the innocent USA Today once asked: "Why is it a thing?" Beloved by some for his pleasure. Hated by others for his alleged blasphemy. Really, the Brad Marchand's side dishes.
8. Columbus Blue Jackets
Previous ranking: 9
The Blue Jackets are rolled crescent rolls. They are super tasty but also super popular. What a nuisance is when the meal goes so well and then you reach out and realize that there is no more bread, dude.
9. Buffalo Sabers
Previous ranking: ten
The Sabers are that turkey who spent 10 hours in a smoking room. You can see it. You can feel it. You are sure that good things are happening. Then, he is finally ready after a long and painful wait that has mobilized several coaches and at least one general manager. (He is then served on a burnt table, according to the rules of buffalo sports fans.)
10. Colorado Avalanche
Previous ranking: 11
The avs are crispy turkey skin. Decadent, powerfully tasty, portends greatness in the rest of the meal … but it just misses the depth to satiate your hunger.
11. Calgary Flames
Previous ranking: 12
The flames are Pigs in a blanket in the honor of Johnny Gaudreau, the living incarnation of great things that happen in small portions, especially when they are associated with a flaky goodness. The kindness in Gaudreau's case was Sean Monahan.
12. Capitals of Washington
Previous ranking: 8
Capitals are all the wine that everyone brought to the Thanksgiving dinner, mix with all the beer that everyone brought to the Thanksgiving dinner, mix with a beautiful eau-de-vie. Oh no … Alex Ovechkin is trying to make snow angels in the gravy boat, still have to run …
13. Montreal Canadiens
Previous ranking: 17
Canadians are giblets. What's a giblet? Like, we know that they are mentioned with turkey and therefore a long-standing tradition. Are they good? Are they bad? Does Carey Price just give them a nice appearance? Is Max Domi the heart or the gizzard? Who can say at this point?
14. New York Rangers
Previous ranking: 20
The Rangers are the Sandwiches leftover Thanksgiving. Oh, so you thought the meal was done? Is it time to prepare for the next vacation? Well, this tasty mix of leftovers from the big meal with a touch of new condiments and a new seasoning came together very well.
It's Thanksgiving week, so Greg Wyshynski and Emily Kaplan share their thanks to hockey (3:10). We speak with Lyndsey Fry, American Olympian, ambassador and current advisor to the Coyotes team president, Ahron Cohen (6.30 pm). We play another round of "Sach Got Your Number" (28:09) In addition, the Sabers are they a team in series (40:35)? Plus, "Phil Kessel loves hot dogs", puck titles and more! Listening »
15. Dallas Stars
Previous ranking: 16
Although it may seem like a sacrilege not to make a reference to barbecue here, the reality is that the Stars are mashed potatoes. Sometimes smooth and wonderful. Sometimes stocky and dry. The problems of coherence abound.
16. New York Islanders
Previous ranking: 14
Islanders are a cider donut: Clearly missing something in the middle, but determined to show that they can be delicious without him, well, that's it.
17. Philadelphia Flyers
Previous ranking: 19
The Flyers are cranberry sauce. It does not matter how much he can be, he's always held back by the same thing. In the case of the Flyers, they are mediocre goalkeepers. In the case of cranberry sauce, it's a gelatinous plate that takes the shape of the can that contains it.
18. Carolina Hurricanes
Previous ranking: 18
Hurricanes are a kind of side dish created with molecular gastronomy. You sit with a plate of traditional foods, then some place an orb of freeze-dried, sage-infused juice next to your potatoes. And you're like, "Hey, it's an exciting new approach to something, maybe it'll work, or maybe it'll be an abject failure." In any case, points to try something different. "
19. Coyotes from Arizona
Previous ranking: 21
The Coyotes are the children's table. They look with nostalgia at the place where parents sit, full of beautiful glasses, high-end utensils and a porcelain serving tray … until their attention be diverted by their little cousin who puts his pencils in candied yams. Again.
20. Vancouver Canucks
Previous ranking: 13
The Canucks are pumpkin pie. One month a year, pretty much the best pie imaginable. And then it disappears from the shelves. Poof. Faded away.
21. Pittsburgh penguins
Previous ranking: 15
The penguins are turkey with white meat. A staple of Thanksgiving. Something you expect to be there every time you build your plate. But what happens if a year instead, everyone decides to eat brown meat and that white meat was summarily ignored, even if it still looked delicious? And if really. Maybe the Penguins could ask Matt Murray to keep some of the meat for the next Thanksgiving, knowing that he is not keeping anything else at the moment …

22. Florida Panthers
Previous ranking: 24
The Panthers are a honeyed ham. Every year, we wonder if a ham cooked with honey could make its appearance and become the main dish of Thanksgiving. And every year, it ends up being chopped for salads and omelettes.
23. Edmonton Oilers
Previous ranking: 22
The Oilers are the table of the dining room, or more precisely, Connor McDavid is. The table of the dining room is the base on which everything is placed. Without the dining room table, the entire meal would collapse into a mass of broken glass and splattered food. Now, you could say, "This table is so beautiful, why not add things to take advantage of this sturdy table.May be flowers, or a table-scape complete.Maybe a beautiful porcelain, or beautiful sheets? " Oh, wait, sorry … we're actually at Peter Chiarelli's for Thanksgiving this year. He just sawed off one of the legs of the table and sold it for a bag of magic beans. Oops.
24. Chicago Blackhawks
Previous ranking: 26
The Blackhawks are Brussels sprouts. They were away for so many years, then came back with a delicious new twist in an old dish that we did not even know we wanted. But then we could not get rid of it. "Here, have more Brussels sprouts dipped in this sweet and salty vinaigrette, and then a little more, and more after that, and now eat them out every year." Like, respect and everything, but maybe give a chance to something else on the plate.
25. New Jersey Devils
Previous ranking: 28
The devils are Baked Zitimainly because many of my Italian friends who grew up in Jersey would have cooked ziti for Thanksgiving, which has always seemed to me as confusing as it is here. See also: Playoff Candidate, Devils as.
26. Detroit Red Wings
Previous ranking: 25
The Red Wings are Creme Corn. "Hey, look at that rather appetizing variation of something you've always loved." But hey, you might learn to like corn in cream. We never know.
27. Anaheim ducks
Previous ranking: 23
Ducks are not ducks, which would have been all too easy. No, ducks are Thanksgiving Day TV. The day could be terrible. The food could be terribly bad. Do you know who improves things, who saves the day? John Gibson … uh, we're talking about Thanksgiving Day Television, its marathons, NFL games and competitions that are strangely ubiquitous in dog shows that save you from difficult conversions with your loved ones.
28. Ottawa Senators
Previous ranking: 30
While resolutely avoiding the obvious "liver" joke of Eugene Melynk, we go there with a perfect created by some kind of sadist, where each new layer is more horrible than the previous one, like fried ants followed by battery acid. ("Hey, you want to see something that will make the Uber video thing look strange?" Why not a fictional propaganda scandal on Twitter, in which the team seemed to use sock accounts to congratulate its own owner? ")
29. Vegas Golden Knights
Previous ranking: 29
The gold knights are the ones out of incredible works that your sister-in-law did last year that, for some reason, has the taste of hot death this Thanksgiving. Not enough salt? Too much salt? Maybe Nate Schmidt missed all that Nate Schmidt was drinking? Whatever the difference, it is as appetizing as this mysterious gelatin in an all-you-can-eat Vegas buffet.
30. St. Louis Blues
Previous ranking: 27
The blues are corn. Maize, in theory, should be excellent. Because it's corn. But here's the thing about Thanksgiving corn: This is no longer the time for corn. What was great in theory just never tastes as good as it should be in reality. And those friends are the St. Louis Blues.
31. Los Angeles Kings
Previous ranking: 31
Kings are that giant stack of scrapers that you find at the top of the basket, a mass of things that were really delicious at the same time but that now congeal in an inert porridge.
