The top two teams in NHL.com's Super 16 didn't budge this week, but the hottest two teams in the League inched closer to the top with the panel of 13 voters for the weekly power rankings continuing to show their belief in the Columbus Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild.
The Blue Jackets, who opened the month at No. 8, are third this week, a byproduct of their 10-game winning streak, the longest in their history, and 12-game point streak (11-0-1), which is one shy of tying the record for longest in their history.
The Wild, who have won eight consecutive games, are up to No. 7 this week after coming back into the Super 16 at No. 10 last week. They were six points short of receiving enough points to be ranked in the Super 16 two weeks ago.
