EDITOR NOTE - Apologies for the short and sweet update, but here are our initial power rankings for S2. I promise to get back to our standard quality of articles before long.
- Best Record

- 2nd Best
- Syracuse Firebirds
- 3rd Best
- St Louis Archers
- 4th Best
- Trenton Thunderbolts

In future updates, we'll keep track of past power rankings, because what's the fun in rankings if we can't obsess over who's rising, who's falling, and who's spiraling into oblivion? But work-life balance is limited at the moment...still.
But for now, let's talk about expected wins - or, in other words, how teams SHOULD be playing. Are some squads punching above their weight class? Are others underperforming like a blockbuster flop? Time to separate reality from illusion.
