Like the rest of us, the NHL Network is trying to find fun and exciting ways to fill the time before the new season starts (or heck, before preseason starts). Their methodology has taken the time honored form of something called “a listicle,” or when it’s on TV a Top ________ Show. So far they have compiled the following lists: Top 20 Centers Right Now, Top 20 Defensemen Right Now, Top 20 Wings Right Now and Top 10 Goalies Right Now. Alex Pietrangelo ranked 9th on their list of defensemen; Vladimir Tarasenko ranked 11th on their list of wingers.
Vladimir Tarasenko’s ranking in the Top 50 Players Right Now seems low.
