Heading into the first few weeks of the 2014 regular season, the Kings snag the No. 13 spot in Scott Burnside's official power rankings for ESPN.com with a 15-11-6 record:

"The Kings are still stuck in neutral, as they have just four wins in their past 11 games. Where would they be without Jonathan Quick? Ugly to think about it."

Meanwhile, the Blues currently hold the impressive No. 3 spot (out of 30 total teams) with a 21-8-2 record. According to Burnside:

"The Blues have won four in a row and continue to take on the Blackhawks and Predators in what is a pitched battle for the top spot in the Central."
