Wolves and Edge Most Improved In Second Half



In doing the stats on a daily basis you tend to notice trends. One trend that has been clear to everyone is that the Wolves are making a spirited run for the Cup. What may be less well known is what a marked improvement in the standings the Edge have made since the half-way point of the season (end of Week 13) to now.
Having the presumptive Hart Trophy winner and 60+ goal man in Alex the Great tends to help there. Adding NHL Assist leader Super Joe Thornton doesn't hurt either.

The steepest drop off has been by the Personal Vendetta who have fallend 6 slots down the rankings (slightly worse than the 5 spots the Lost Boys have tumbled).

Aren't the Great Whites 2nd to the Wolves as most improved team in the 2nd half??

Depends how you count it - Would be worthwhile to post it based on +/- points 2nd half vs 1st half so:

Wolves +20
GWs +10
Edge +6
Bladerunners +2

All other 8 teams have less points so far in the 2nd half than they did in the first, some by more than -100 points!

Any way you slice it, The Edge have a scary looking team leading up to the 08-09 season, and look to finish at least 8th, likely 7th this year...

2 ace FPs are definitely a good start towards having a scary team!
