Nashville Predators: Way too early Western Conference Power Rankings

The opening weekend of games has come and gone, with a few surprises. How do the Nashville Predators and the Western Conference stack up?

Now that we have emerged on the other side of opening weekend in the NHL, it is time for much too early Western Conference Power rankings. While some teams have surprised early on, others (including the Nashville Predators) are still working out the kinks and struggling to find chemistry.

Here I will take a look at the week that was for the Nashville Predators and the other 14 Western Conference teams, while I try to project where each franchise is heading. Although I know the rankings will change week-to-week, the hope is to evaluate and breakdown my thoughts on which teams are trending up and which teams are taking a turn for the worse.

So without further ado here is the first edition of my weekly Western Conference Power Rankings.
