NHL Power Rankings: Chicago Blackhawks Move Up As Races Tighten
By George Clifford

No. 16: Boston Bruins
Previous: 14th
Season record: 26-23-6 (58 points)
Goalie Tuukka Rask owns 25 of Boston’s 26 wins but is starting to wilt under the burden of a six-month regular season. The Bruins may have to trade for a proven backup as the race for second and third place in the Atlantic Division tightens up. After a slow start, Patrice Bergeron has caught fire, combining with Brad Marchand for nine goals and eight assists over the past five games.
