The Boston Bruins, who have won eight in a row, are the new No. 1 team in NHL.com's weekly Super 16, ending the Washington Capitals' run atop the power rankings.

The Capitals were No. 1 for three straight weeks. They are No. 2 this week.

The Philadelphia Flyers, with five straight wins and a seven-game point streak, moved up seven spots to No. 7. The Colorado Avalanche moved up five spots to No. 6.

The Vegas Golden Knights found their way back into the Super 16 thanks to a season-long four-game winning streak. The Dallas Stars took the biggest fall, dropping six spots to No. 12.

To create the power rankings, each of the 13 participating staff members puts together his or her version of what the Super 16 should look like. Those are submitted and a point total is assigned to each.

The team picked first is given 16 points, second gets 15, third gets 14 and so on down to No. 16, which gets one point.
