Week 26 - Wednesday Night (Highlanders Waste Opportunity)





There were only 6 NHL games on the schedule last night but the Highlanders had 10 players, including both FPs (and FP to be Mike Green) plus both tgs, while the Vendetta had only 3 players. A big opportunity for the Highlanders to exploit a man-games advantage and put some distance between themselves and their main competition. They gained less than 5pts, which is simply not good enough. A wasted opportunity by the Highlanders that they hope they don't look back on and regret.

The Severed Heads gained a few points on the Vendetta themselves as they try and right the ship in time to pull even in the Challenge Cup final. They are still down in the series and down in the second game but the gap is one that can still be made up. They did pull back ahead of the Bladerunners into 3rd place in the Predator Cup standings which has to be some encouragement (despite the Prospect Draft impact).

The Edge are beginning to fear that the Herbivore is coming back to Sabrina Road with the Great Whites and the Wolves having solid weeks - sights can still be set on the Lost Boys but they need to make up more than 20pts in less than two weeks.
