PHT’s Morning Skate takes a look around the world of hockey to see what’s happening and what we’ll be talking about around the NHL world and beyond.

Sometimes, it seems like “Top X” lists are meant to make people mad. It’s unclear if TSN’s Top 50 player rankings set out to do so, but it accomplished that task anyway.

Now, a few reactions:

Mission accomplished?
