Can we all please take a moment to stop
And just appreciate The Hockey Guy’s sense of humor.
He kicks some serious ass in that department, I'd say
Part of the reason I love watching him
His line, and delivery of it, about not being tired enough to see multiple versions of himself was *chef's kiss
Legendary
What? He was joking about having elves helpers?
hardest working man on youtube
He does put in some LOOOOONG days!
Of course, no doubt
no doubt....love his videos!
100 percent!
I couldnt get myself motivated to write these boards full everyday. massive probs to shannon, he earned every view
Nothing better than drinking your morning coffee and getting a notification of a THG power rankings upload!
What time zone do you live in?

Same here
Woke up early, decided to get up and make a cuppa for this one.
@@TayR0C Somewhere in europe clearly. His comment was posted at 11am GMT+2.
Seeing Toronto at first has to be the most hype and the most cursed thing I've ever seen.
Playoff Time will be Broom Time once they play ANY US based team.
@@philipanderson4115 I hope that’s a joke, but if not it’s Anti-Toronto bias 101.
@@owenj8854 No Joke...SWEEEEP coming for the North. Hosers
@@philipanderson4115 I mean how does anybody know that?? It could be true that the Candian teams would get murdered. But what if the North was the best division?? How do we know? We don't, so lets just wait and see
@@wisemanofsorts6068 Hopium lives strong in you. Hoser On.
Shannon, the beast. Pumping out content for 15 hours today is absurd. He is truly the hockey guy.
Watching THG subscribers with the machine, it was suddenly so clear. The Shannon, would never stop. It would never leave his subscribers, and it would never hurt them, never shout at them, or get drunk and hit them, or say it was too busy to spend time with them. It would always be there. And it would die, to protect them. Of all the would-be RUclips fathers who came and went over the years, this thing, this machine, was the only one who measured up. In an insane world, it was the sanest choice. 🤖🏒😎
The Hockinator, Series THG-101
RUclips algorithm randomly recommended this video to me and it’s very interesting to see how much can change (and stay the same) in 3 years
I think the email address was wrong, my complaint email got bounced back twice.
It is not .au it is .ca ..... he is Canadian after all.
complain to me instead thepadawanj@gmail.com . idk what ur talkin hiut but its ok ill see what i can do
lol 😂
At around the 14 minute mark you hit the nail on the head as to why I enjoy the power rankings now vs 3 years ago when I didn't. Also explains why I am a fan of yours now. Thanks for adjusting your reactionary power rankings to be much more consistent and focused on smaller movements over longer amounts of time. Much more fair and reasonable. You been earning this sub and my likes for over a year now! Glad I was able to have my mind changed, as you are one of the best on RUclips now.
This has to be your hardest working day yet! Much respect to you Shannon! You’re legendary !
Garry your ice melted 😞
Do you know how the sun works?
Fun fact: the sun melts ice
@@carltubbs7617 Wait really, I thought it was the other way around
Booooooooooooooooooooo
I have probably never been up when the power ranking has been uploaded. Have a nice sleep Shannon, you thoroughly deserve it.
Calgary’s ranking is generous, and it’s so frustrating thinking back to before the season when I honestly thought we’d be top 3 in the north
Im an Oilers fan and I still want you to do well because I want an Edm Cgy playoff series already ffs. Last one was 1991
@@TayR0C I totally agree. Calgary needs to get their shit together and keep up
Heartbreaking season thus far
Calgary is going to get blown up this year. Listening to treliving on the radio on Friday. He’s pissed. I can see some big names leaving.
Is Gaudreau still "Johnny Hockey"? He's a damn ghost.
Can only play the teams in front of you, and the Leafs are doing the best at that right now. I dont think being number 1 necessarily means they are the best team in the League. Cant really judge that super well with the NHL divisions being the way they are. Think people need to keep that in mind before criticizing Power Rankings.
I just love how the complaints departments email always seems to end with .au every time 😂
The hockey community here in Australia loves you Shannon!
Wonder how many of us there are
Yeah what's hockey like over there
A restless night for me. I see Shannon posting videos this late/early and I can’t help but smile a bit. Best hockey source out there. It’s not even up for discussion.
The oilers are on fire they’ve been looking like a complete team for weeks now
Smith coming back really helped!
4:39 am Sunday. I can finally go to sleep after watching all the content Shannon makes. He is a beast and I have to say Thank you for the hard work you do.
I'm super thrilled about the Canes right now! I may even go to a game in Raleigh since I live in South Carolina and it's not a long trip.
Roger that! Ther Canes look like they're locked in. Shutting out the Bolts last night wasa amazing. Ned dia wonderful job in net.. We can hope that the success continues.
GO CANES! SC resident here, too.
You don’t have to skip if you speed it up to 1.25x speed.
25th for the flames is honestly too high. We are absolutely dog water
Shannon has explained how he ranks teams using his system. Don’t worry. I’m sure they’ll continue to drop if they keep playing this way haha
agreed. when he said "i think flames fans can admit they're playing poorly" i was like uh yes, we're in complete meltdown mode. This team should be 29-31 range that's how poorly they're playing and have been playing all season. Only saving grace so far is Marky and the Canucks sucking about as hard.
You don't just get to 31st or 29th straight away. Ottawa and Vancouver have been absolutely atrocious for weeks. You have to really work to get that low. They just aren't that bad yet, but maybe if they keep going like they have they will be soon.
@@Scott_Salmon 28-30
31st is going to be the ducks home all season long
Truth. It has been a very bad week for the Flames.
Late for me, but I'm gonna stay up to watch this! Thanks Shannon
Shannon putting in the work, uploading at 1am. Appreciate all the work you put into this.
I think COL should be top 2. Beating VGK 2 outta 3, especially with 1 of those games missing 5 keys starting players and the 1 loss being right after our COVID lay off. The AVS are starting to turn it back up again and Grubby is playing lights out. I would this COL team against BOS & TB and say with a lot of confidence that the AVS win. Thanks for all the amazing hockey videos!! By far the best and most accurate hockey channel on YT. We appreciate everything!!
This Hawks team is fun. Feels like the year or so before the first cup run, when the team was all about these talented young up and coming stars. The main difference is that now we a veteran version of Patrick Kane who is still one of the best wingers in the world. I can't wait to see what next year looks like when Dach and (hopefully) Toews are back.
We got a pretty tough division in the actual central division. I see us fighting for the 3rd spot, but we just need to add small pieces during the offseason. I got a feeling we going to see consist playoffs in the coming seasons
Well done today man. You deserve all the credit in the world. Thanks for doing what you do. Much appreciated!
Damn. I think I prefer feeling Shannon slighted the Leafs. Now I'm pretty sure we'll fall apart LOL
I think I commented a week back that I was more worried about the Oilers in the North than the Habs. They get average goaltending and secondary scoring and they're a real problem. As if having McDavid and Draisaitl (sp?) is fair to begin with.
Thank you for all the effort you put into each video Shannon
Chill mornings drinking coffee and playing video games on the pc, and then watching THG videos at the same time, is one of my fave things to do. Always with the respectable power rankings as well
don’t know why this was recommended to me three years later but here I am, awesome to see how far you have come THG!
Its comforting to see the ducks still at the bottom hahaha
I used to not watch the whole video, but I'm starting to now really appreciate the work you put in, so I will put in the smallest amount of effort to watch the whole thing.
Those leafs though... been listening to you from living in Newfoundland all the way to now living in Alberta!! Keep up the great work man, very well presented content! Go leafs goooo
Newfenberta
Bro just go to bed, its fine we can wait for the power ranking videos!!!
Its only 1:45 there and he doesnt have a job, he's fine
@@TayR0C he doesn’t sleep in and he has kids and RUclips is basically a job for him
@@matthew3925 he doesn't have kids. His wife does.
@@TayR0C he still takes care of them bruh
@@TayR0C sure he does, this is his job.
I can't believe it...we're #1!! (Even though we probably don't deserve it) woo!
We don't get here often
What position do you guys play?
@@TayR0C Edmonton fan in shambles.
Who hasn't referred to their team as "we" before. If you're a hockey fan you have too. Fuck off pleb.
@@TayR0C - Fetal
@@TayR0C Child's pose
Impressive oh hockey guy! I wanted to fast forward but your explanation for each team is so much fun to listen to that I have to watch the whole thing!
Lol I love the opening disclaimer.
If you heard a distant gasp, it was me reacting to the reveal of the Bruins magnets at 2nd
Little late to the comment game on this one but Shannon is the most wholesome person on youtube I swear
We watch the whole video. Especially power rankings
Appreciate the hustle Shannon , greetings from England
Looks like the front office shake up has sparked the Pens. Especially Malkin and Letang. Maybe it's just coincidence but they've both started shooting the puck more. Malkin still derps around and his line is a major liability at times. Much improved play though.
I can't remember the time we were blessed with sleep-deprived thg content we have been blessed this Sunday in which our host can ramble on for two minutes before even getting close to what the video is about XD
2 am post for the information that matters!!! Thanks for helping me survive curfew!
Loved these for years. Keeep it up boss
you’re insane shannon i appreciate you
always excited for the weekend for this reason! keep up the amazing work
I very rarely need or want to correct you because of all the hard work you put in and how much I love this channel, but as a Kings fan I must make one correction here. If the playoffs started right now Vegas would be playing LA, who moved up to fourth after beating Arizona last night.
I am convinced this year's Stanley Cup comes down to Toronto and Boston. I want a game seven series. And either way it goes I'll be delighted.
As a Leafs fan I'm incredibly nervous that you have us at one, watch us drop to like 7th next week cuz Toronto
let's hope we stay up there!
@@asharpbflat7179 I wish so too but I'm hesitant lol
That Trochek trade is really helping Carolina out. They long needed a 2C and didn't give up too much to get him. Staal is playing much better too.
Your insanely funny! Love the video. Thanks for being so damn awesome!
Loving the canes play this season. Roddy coaches how he played and it translates really well even with a young team.
Hardest working RUclipsr 🙏🏻🙏🏻 we love you
So glad I found this channel keep up the great work man !
You are awesome bro thank you for the power rankings
Man, these play-offs match ups would be so fun to watch!
What makes me happy is that in the end, it’s a rebuild year and the Kings current roster is still competitive. Byfield/Turcotte/Fagemo/Durzi/Kupari/etc haven’t even made their NHL debuts yet and those are the blue chip prospects still in the AHL. In the end, the Coyotes and Wild are what they are. All their young talent is already up and the Ducks have Zegras/Drysdale but who knows when they’ll be up. Thanks for the Kings love
Edmonton and Toronto fighting for first will be fun to see if both teams keep up this level of play.
You are an absolute champion Shannon
Makes me a smile as a Leafs fan
as a leafs fan, your regular season content is much more enjoyable than post season... D:
As a caps fan, the nervousness is creeping in, we really haven’t played our best hockey lately. Yes we’ve had injuries and Covid etc... hopefully when samsonov comes back we get some really good games outta him and the offence picks up but man it’s not been great lately
What if we had a Hawks-Devils SCF? Just spitballling
Wake up to the hockey guy putting Toronto number one on power rankings?!?! What a time to be alive!!!!!
Also take a nap or something dude, you are like the terminator of hockey news and reviews.
Let’s goooo it’s upp
Shannon you're a gem
It’s 2:30 here in Colorado
Same here in Edmonton !!!! It's a miracle !
I did some insane 15 hour shifts when I was younger and I think I was seeing elves by the end of it too. Well done THG you did good!
I truly hope that you have an additional pog that you can use to put Hoglander's face on. It will be useful someday.
Yeah, look. I'm not used to getting upload notifications at 8pm here in Australia
Great work man, love what you do!
Feel bad for buffalo. They were playing decent before the break and competing with great teams. Ristolainen can barely climb the stairs and sounds like he's out for the long term. The Sabres couldn't even practice together
That top five represents the five best rosters in the league imo and the records reflect that
YESSSSSS!!!!! Finally my Leafs earn top spot on the power rankings! NOW I feel good about where we're at
Not gonna throw shade at the NHL or the officiating but there were multiple missed calls in both of the Sharks V. St Louis which were game changing.
*the point of saying this is that although I is an unprecedented season and a officials and players are having a really tough time, the calls are looking very 1 sided in most situations.
I like these break downs!
Finally number 1 baby! How did I know this was the week!
i can not figure it how is tampa placed above canes
The canes and leafs have astonishingly similar numbers. Leafs have slightly higher sample size (19 games vs 16), and the canes have arguably played tougher competition. Bottom of both divisions is horrendous, but tampa-florida-dallas/chicago is friskier than Edmonton-winnipeg-montreal. That's just my opinion, of course, and it's impossible to know without interdivisional play.
I don’t understand how Montreal ahead of Edmonton
Just look at their record
@@ryans413 just look at their record
@@T-Dogg20 canes record is simply better , and they even beat them twice if I am not mistaken
why do the ones on the bottom left remind me of pogs... i posted this comment at when he posted the blackhawks one up and now im hearing it from him later on in the video. Shanny pogs are great i loved that game.
Little bit of a steve dangles vibe with that intro, gave me a good laugh. Keep up the good work :D
What's more likely at this point, Matthews scores 50 goals or McDavid finishes the season above 2 points per game?
Matthews scoring 50 goals.
Both
Probably mcdavid’s point but tbh i don’t think either happen. Matthews would have to continuously sustain his goals over the entire season and mcdavid would have to continuously sustain his points. Even in a 56 game season that’s incredibly difficult. Hate to be that guy tho. Sorry for taking the fun out of it
Both...
Appreciate the work man
Moving on up GKG
I would rank Lake Tahoe Ice as 32nd Seattle Kraken 33rd.
We appreciate you Shannon
Habs at #2 in the North is VERY generous. They dominated the Canucks early in the season, but are below .500 against the rest of the division.
Best sports yt channel
Can someone help remind me of this year's playoff format? I know that the top 4 make it out of each division and those 4 play each other until 1 is left. However, when each division is down to their 1 team, who plays whom (or who idk lol)? What I am asking is, who does each divisional champion play?
Seeded by points percentage, 1 v 4 and 2 v 3
@@jasonfire3434 I suppose that is the fairest way to do it even though it isn't entirely fair. Thanks! A battle royale would have been fun to watch too if they were all in a bubble/the same city.
@@TinnieTa21 If we’re still having the same border restrictions they might have to do that anyway or else the series involving the Canadian team would never be able to finish
Respect Shannon!
Thanks for the fun rankings! Go Wild 💚❤️💚❤️
Always look forward to these rankings, a little more when I know the leafs will be at the top
Just in time for lunch!
Jeesus 1:30 am and thg is uploading.. the literal youtube 🐐
You sure "literal" is the word you're looking for there?
I never thought I'd see a day where the Toronto Maple Leafs would be number one on the power rankings what a great sight to behold.
It is crazy the Atlantic division is one two three in the power rankings it just shows how top heavy that division really is
Until last night (Monday,) I've been wanting to buy Tampa a goal. These rescheduled games, other teams, are going to do them in yet.
As always: Very fair. I am a Bruins fan, too. And still call it fair!
Your Wild rating is fair. But! If you moved us down for losing to LA, are you going to bump us up if we beat Vegas twice the beginning of March?
Jets pulled out a win again on 02/21/21. But the real test will be how the play against Montreal. Right now the Habs are 4th in the standings behind Toronto, Edmonton, and Winnipeg.
As a Caps fan I agree we havent played well Im just hoping this isnt a lost season
My God I love Shannon’s humour so much
