Week 20 Power Rankings - Negative Impact E-mail
Written by LTL   

Seems outlets are publishing these about as much as I've been this year.

Not that anyone really cares but three that did publish actually dropped the Jackets despite winning two games (most did not take into account last night's W).

CBSSports.com
Rank: 27 (+1)
Change apparently is good for the Jackets, who have won their first two under new coach Claude Noel.

ESPN.com
Rank: 26 (-3)
The Blue Jackets seem to have been given new life with the firing of coach Ken Hitchcock and have won two straight.

CBC.ca
Rank: 24 (+4)

 

TSN.ca
Rank: 29 (-1)
Is Steve Mason capable of turning his sophomore slump season around, now that Ken Hitchcock has moved on? He's allowed one goal against in the last two games.
Key Injuries: D Rostislav Klesla (groin), D Mike Commodore (hip).

Rank: 25 (+1)
A coaching change has Blue Jackets fans singing "Claude To Joy." Interim coach Claude Noel seems to have lifted a dark cloud of confusion.

FoxSports.com
Rank: 27 (+1)
The Blue Jackets were able to move up one place in the rankings thanks to the play of Steve Mason. The Columbus goalie won both of his starts last week, only giving up one goal on 51 shots.

THN.com
Rank: 27 (-1)
2-0 under new coach Claude Noel; Steve Mason has given up just one goal in those contests
