NHL Power Rankings: Have Blackhawks topped Capitals for best team?

The Chicago Blackhawks have rocketed up the standings in the Western Conference with another one of their long winning streaks. But have they topped the Washington Capitals as the best team in the NHL?

This week’s power rankings have a battle at the top, but, alas, some of the same old suspects at the bottom.

Every other week, Yahoo Sports will be bringing you NHL Power Rankings as voted on by the Y! Sports staff and Puck Daddy editors. Please keep in mind these rankings were created prior to Wednesday night’s games.

Feel free to provide your own rankings in the comments section. See you in two weeks!
