The 2023-24 NHL season turned 1 month old on Thursday (aww…), and it’s been a hot time for reflection upon the trends that may or may not stick for the duration. We’re also coming up on the all-important benchmark of American Thanksgiving; teams in playoff position at that time make the playoffs around 80% of the time.

With all of that in mind, here are our updated 1-32 Power Rankings for this week. As a special gift, we’ve asked ESPN fantasy hockey analysts Sean Allen and Victoria Matiash to suggest a player (or players) from each team to add/drop from your fantasy roster; Sean handled the Eastern teams, while Victoria tackled the West.

How we rank: A panel of ESPN hockey commentators, analysts, reporters and editors each send in a 1-32 poll based on the games through Wednesday, which generates our master list here.

Note: Previous ranking for each team refers to the preseason edition, published Nov. 3. Points percentages are through Thursday’s games.

Previous ranking: 1
Points percentage: 82.14%
Next seven days: vs. SJ (Nov. 10), @ WSH (Nov. 14), @ MTL (Nov. 16)

Remember when William Karlsson (available in 34% of leagues) erupted for 43 goals and 78 points in his first season with the Knights? Well, he’s revisiting that pace six years later. Unlike Vegas’ other heavy fantasy hitters, he might be available in your league. If so, snag him.
