1-32 poll, plus every team as a Disney World attraction
[ad_1]
Walt Disney World is currently celebrating its 50th birthday, having opened roughly four months before Jaromir Jagr was born.
To honor this magical place, and with no small amount of corporate synergy, we’ve decided to use this week’s NHL power rankings to match all 32 teams with the Disney World attractions — rides, food, characters — that best fit their vibes.
How we rank: A panel of ESPN hockey commentators, analysts, reporters and editors rates teams against one another — taking into account game results, injuries and upcoming schedule — and those results are tabulated to produce the list featured here.
Note: Previous ranking for each team refers to the last edition, published on Jan. 5. Points percentages are through Tuesday’s games.
Previous ranking: 1
Points percentage: 0.758
Next seven days: vs. CBJ (Jan. 13), vs. VAN (Jan. 15), @ BOS (Jan. 18)
Churros. They’re not always right in front of you. You have to know where to find them. But once you do, the variety of flavors and the absolute sugar high you get from them makes churros better than anything else in the park.
Previous ranking: 2
Points percentage: 0.736
Next seven days: vs. DAL (Jan. 14), vs. CBJ (Jan. 15), @ CGY (Jan. 18)
Mad Tea Party. From Dec. 14 to Jan. 8, the Panthers had an average of 8.4 total goals in their games. They were 16-0-0 when leading after two periods and have rallied for a point in five of 12 games in which they trailed after two periods. Like the tea cups, a dizzying experience.
Previous ranking: 4
Points percentage: 0.712
Next seven days: vs. ARI (Jan. 14), @ ARI (Jan. 15), vs. MIN (Jan. 17)
Astro Orbiter. Piloting a high-flying rocket ship to the stars … until you realize your aforementioned rocket ship is tethered to a pole with a metal bar, and you’ve been unable to truly take off when it matters. In fact, you just keep going in circles …
Previous ranking: 3
Points percentage: 0.721
Next seven days: @ ARI (Jan. 12), @ STL (Jan. 15)
The Haunted Mansion. Everywhere you look,…
