Yeah, still at least 10 teams in the playoff hunt. And the top seeds are all still up for grabs.
TBS still controls their own destiny in the West.
Algoma and Toronto Control their own destiny for 2nd seed and if TBS loses one and Algoma wins out they still have a chance at the 1st spot. If Toronto wins out and TBS loses Toronto is still 2nd because of the head to head.
The Baby Seals can get as high as #1 but will need to win out and have Algoma lose one.
Moose Jaw can cause some drama! They still face TBS, The Snow Cats and Lethbridge. If they win those they still might be on the outside looking in for a home game but should be able to secure a 4 spot at least if they win out. They need some help from others though.
Lethbridge...big games against Moose Jaw and Timber Bay. The Moose Jaw game will be the big difference maker though. If they win it they still have a chance at a pretty high seed thanks to the Algoma win and some other key match ups happening for others...lose that and they could be out of a home game! Their future really depends on a lot of opponents if they lose that one game. This team is likely to be in the top 5 -6 spots and may get a little higher. Pretty secure for a playoff spot though barring any major upsets.
The Lycans got lucky and caught Moose Jaw while they were cold and that is HUGE for them! Unfortunately they lost to the current top 3 and will need a bit to pass those guys. Games against the Seals and Rockers are very big and if they win those they have a good chance at a home game...lose one or both and they may likely won't get a home game...but should secure a playoff spot.
The Snow cats are just fighting to stay in it right now. Still have 3 tough games against Moose, Lethbridge and Seals. Win out and they could get a home playoff game but lose all 3 and they might miss the playoffs! They have yet to beat a likely playoff opponent yet though so getting above the 8 seed might be tough for them. To secure a playoff spot they should only have to beat Windsor and hope Bear beach loses one more.
Bear Beach is on the outside looking in and with tough games against TBS and Toronto coming up their playoff outlook looks dismal.
Windsor need a prayer. These guys HAVE to win out to secure a spot and have the toughest remaining schedule out of everyone. All of the remaining teams they face are likely in the playoffs already. I highly doubt they make the playoffs.
Everyone else is out...and some of them have some hard games coming up on top of that.
My prediction of the final seedings:
1) Thunder Bay Sabertooths
2) Algoma Arena Rockers
3) Toronto Punishers
4) Moose Jaw Mac Attack
5) Lethbridge Fighters
6) Hudson Baby Seals (This could be the team that screws me up, they have a great chance to be a lot higher)
7) Thunder Bay Lycans
8) Timber Bay Snowcats

I think he means you played us at a good time. Not that you got lucky and won a game you shouldnt.

That is what I meant...no disrespect to your team about how you whipped them...they just seem to be playing MUCH better ball now. That is all...not trying to take anything away from your team. Sorry if it came off wrong, it was not my intent.

we have been underdogs in most games this season. im very happy with how we are competing with higher lvl competition... but not to worry fellas... the gap will be closed between us and most other teams when we boost later this season. we are only about 1/3 boosted

You lost two close games and had one beat up against arguably 3 of the top 5-6 teams. You beat the Moose and Timber Bay but like we said before the Moose weren't playing that great early so I don't know how to take that one.
What you do against the Seals and Rockers will give us a good idea of where you are at. You guys are playing great over there and I for one would not be surprised if you do to us what the Moose did to us!

Everyone's being too nice. Bleh.
The only way the Lycans beat Algoma is if they join in the pre-game circle jerk. *badum-pum"

I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper.
I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
Does that make you feel better?
