For those that have been following along with our Mascot Power Rankings, Gritty is the two-time defending champion and based on "Masc-Scott's" rankings so far this season, it's going to take a ton to dethrone the champ.
It's a new week, though, and a new edition of our Mascot Power Rankings. This seems to be a two-week tradition now which is actually better because it gives mascots more time to do extraordinary things in the hopes of making the list.
"Masc-Scott" has a pretty secret formula when it comes to the rankings, but from what we've gathered, the rankings are based on what the mascots have done in time since the last rankings. It's not about popularity whatsoever. Will Gritty stay on top? Time to find out!
10. Bailey, Los Angeles Kings (Down 6 spots)
The Kings might not be doing so great this season, but Bailey is doing everything in its power to manufacture some good times, even if that means taking a stick below the belt for the content (and rankings).
9. Hooper, Detroit Pistons (Down 1 spot)
In similar fashion as Bailey, Hooper fell victim to at-large mascot tormentor Robin Lopez. Any mascot that walks into the "lion's den" with Lopez, though, earns our respect.
8. Club Leon's new mascot (Unranked)
Everything about this is just adorable. Everything.
7. Moondog, Cleveland Cavaliers (Up 118 spots)
Not only did Moondog land the dunk, but the Cavs' mascot also orchestrated the prank on G-Wiz.
6. Swoop, Philadelphia Eagles (Up 109 spots)
Philly Philly? Philly Philly (with a block from Gritty).
5. Sabretooth, Buffalo Sabres (No change)
If the Sabres and Flyers played against each other every game, Sabretooth and Gritty would probably own the top-two spots based on these videos alone.
4. Chance, Vegas Golden Knights (Up 44 spots)
Aside from using the term "jobbers" (the person making the rankings is a huge wrestling fan), Chance has had a busy two weeks doing a bit of everything...
3. Stormy, Carolina Hurricanes (Up 65 spots)
Apparently "Masc-Scott" isn't a Leafs fan because that's the only explanation for Stormy being at three.
2. The Raptor, Toronto Raptors (No change)
The Raptor and many other broadcasters and coaches around the NBA honoured Craig Sager by wearing unique suits.
1. Gritty, Philadelphia Flyers (No change)
Someone induct Gritty into the Hall of Fame. Three weeks in a row. The king is still on top and there's really no telling when the Flyers' mascot will get knocked off.
