Daily Faceoff’s power rankings bag on the Wings

Daily Faceoff’s Scott Maxwell and Hunter Crowther have issued a set of power rankings, supposedly without bias, but this looks like some bias to me:

26. Detroit Red Wings

Record: 1-1-0, 0
Hunter’s Rank: 20th
Scott’s Rank: 29th

Scott: Mike Gould may not be doing the power rankings this year, but his spirit lives on with me! Someone has to be extremely pessimistic about the Red Wings and I’m happy to take that mantle. It’s only two games, but they find themselves below 40% in expected goal share despite a 1-1 record, so I’m not going to let them off easy after what they did last season. The bill always comes due, Stevie!

Hunter: One thing I’ll give those more optimistic about the club is Cam Talbot looked like the All-Star he was last season with the Kings (Remember that?? The guy was an All-Star at 36 years old – that’s R.A. Dickey stuff right there!). Will he keep that up through the season? Not likely. But wouldn’t it be way more fun if he did? 

Continued; oh no, 1-and-1, let’s all panic!
