The Ice Cats have picked an inopportune time to take a nap. At the start of the week the Cats were 68.8 points out of first place; only 27.5 points behind third place and it's $100.00 prize. A practically pointless Week 14 has dropped the Cats 86.5 points behind the first place team; now 44.7 points in back of the money.Misconducts: 18.2
Ice Cats: 2.0Nicklas Backstrom (1g, 3a) deposited 8.0 points on Wednesday, the Misconducts previously quiet week upgraded from "worrisome" to "pretty damn good." Their league-best H2H record of 10-3 could also be receiving another win, the Misconducts advantage over the sleepy Ice Cats now 16.2 points.
Central Red Army: 24.1
Ice Hogs: 19.7With the Misconducts advancing on Ice Hogs headquarters, it was Dougie Hamilton to the rescue, his late 6.0 point game (1g, 1a) defusing the performance of Nicklas Backstrom. The Hogs however still have a H2H fight on their hands, the Central Red Army still in front, their once fat lead now a thin 4.4 points.
Wild Ducks: 19.2
Between the Pipes: 22.2The Wild Ducks found 6.0 points on Wednesday; not a ton of numbers but enough to cut into the lead of Between the Pipes, GM Collard's 9-4 Ducks now 3.0 points behind the 4-9 Pipes.
SC Cobras: 31.0
Silicon Valley Slashers: 24.8Another day, another multipoint performance from Brent Burns, the 6th overall draft pick contributing 6.0 points (1g, 1a) on Wednesday, his SC Cobras team and their league-best week now 6.2 points better than the Silicon Valley Slashers.
Badger Bob: 13.0
Polar Bears: 12.7Both Badger Bob and the Polar Bears caught their breath of Wednesday, the Bobs netting only 3.0 points; the Bears collecting just 1.0. With Week 14 barreling down the backstretch, this pivotal H2H clash remain close, the Bobs leading by 0.3.
Boulder Flyers: 15.9
Bluliners: 17.0Losing to the Boulder Flyers once is bad enough; losing twice would be change-your-name-and-move-out-of-town worthy. Not wanting to move or change his name, GM Hamilton began to rectify the situation on Wednesday, a solid 10.0 point night providing the B's with their first lead of the week.
