Rangers Ranked #1 in TSN Power Rankings

TSN has ranked the Rangers #1, up from their pre-season ranking of #22, in their first regular season power ranking...

1. Rangers - A tremendous start for Marian Gaborik, who has nine points and a plus-7 rating in five games but, just as importantly, rookie defencemen Michael Del Zotto and Matt Gilroy aren't looking out of place, which upgrades the blueline corps.

...it's amazing how little these so-called experts know. If they had any integrity they would have held back on ranking the Rangers so high so quickly to at least prove they actually believe in their initial ranking that the Rangers weren't going to be a good team.

In other rankings both CBS Sports and Fox Sports have the Rangers ranked at #2. While SI.com has the Blueshirts at #4.
