NHL Power Rankings: 1-32 poll, Halloween identity for teams

Halloween is finally here. Now is a good time to remind everyone to pump the brakes a bit -- much like stores should hold off on going all-out with holiday decorations on Nov. 1.

We as hockey fans must wait patiently until American Thanksgiving in the third week of November to "officially" determine which teams are destined to make the playoffs -- and which ones get extra stuffing because they are cooked.

But in honor of the spooky costumed occasion on Friday, this week's Power Rankings include a Halloween costume or identity for all 32 teams.
