A lot of the writers for the hockey side of SBNation got together--electronically at least--and ranked the top 10 in the NHL and 1-15 in each Conference. Keep in mind these are the preseason rankings on who we think are the best teams right now. Here's what came out of the Top 10 poll as well as the Western Conference poll:
| Rank (1st votes) | Team | SBNation site |
| 1 (8) | San Jose Sharks | Fear the Fin |
| 2 (4) | Detroit Red Wings | You're here already |
| 3 (4) | Pittsburgh Penguins | PensBurgh |
| 4 (5) | Washington Capitals | Japer's Rink |
| 5 | Boston Bruins | Stanley Cup of Chowder |
| 6 | Chicago Blackhawks | Second City Hockey |
| 7 | Philadelphia Flyers | Broadstreet Hockey |
| 8 | Vancouver Canucks | Nucks Misconduct |
| 9 | Calgary Flames | Matchsticks and Gasoline |
| 10 | Carolina Hurricanes | Canes Country |

Odd how the #15 team in our rankings...
