Week 21 Begins With Bladerunners Gaining Ground

There were only three games in the NHL yesterday but it was enough to help the Bladerunners close the gap between themselves and the first place Highlanders to a mere two points. The recent additions to the Bladerunner squad begin to hit the ice tonight (actually Legwand had one point for the team already) and hope to propel them back into first place by the end of the evening. The Personal Vendetta managed a 9pt night, best in the league, and moved past the idle Lost Boys in the Predator Cup standings.

With the Challenge Cup's playoff teams now set, the issue becomes one of seeding. The Bladerunners have clinched first place and home ice throughout the playoffs. The Severed Heads, while currently in second, could fall into third with a loss this week against the Wolves and a Shadowmen win over the Great Whites (both teams would finish with 13-7 records but the Shadowmen hold the tie-breaker). The Highlanders would need to win their game against the Edge and have the Shadowmen lose to the Great Whites to move into third place.

Lots more hockey to play and (apparently) two more weeks until the FunHL trade deadline so lots more trading to take place too. The unoffical stats as of Monday night are as follows:
