The red-hot play of Alex DeBrincat has the Ice Hogs thinking “$10.00 Bonus” - the diminutive sniper collecting six goals and seven assists in his past eight games (including his 8th goal last night); the Hogs and their league-best 15.7 point Saturday now trailing the Sunday-idle Polar Bears by just 3.7 points.Ice Hogs: 44.0
Central Red Army: 19.4
The Ice Hogs were very good on Saturday - though they didn’t have to be as the Central Red fired nothing but blanks - the Hogs outgunning the under-siege Army 15.7 to 0.0; the Army the only FHL team to not register a point. As such, the Fat Lady is bellowing at the top of her lungs, the Hogs lead deemed insurmountable at 24.6 points.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Ice Hogs: 3 players; Central Red Army: 2 players)
Ice Hogs: Kasperi Kapanen, Max Pacioretty, Alec Martinez
Central Red Army: John Carlson, Shea Theodore
Polar Bears: 47.6
Wild Ducks: 23.2For the Polar Bears, the good news first: The Bears are kicking the Wild Ducks' ass. The Bears have the best score of the week. The Bears are now in 2nd place overall. The bad news: For the second consecutive week, the Bears could have the $10.00 bonus ripped from their paws on the final day. Though they lead the Ice Hogs by 3.6 points, the Bears have no one dressed on Sunday. The Hogs will be bringing three players to the rink. For the struggling Wild Ducks, the good news: they’re still in the money (3rd place). The bad news: Everything else.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Polar Bears: 0 players; Wild Ducks: 0 players)
Polar Bears: None
Wild Ducks: None
Cherry Pickers: 42.3
Bluliners: 34.7
It wasn’t a good day to be a Cherry Pickers fan as the team struggled on Saturday, the best of the FHL netting just 4.0 points. The Bluliners meanwhile were doing a fair amount of damage - a 9.4 point evening drawing the team to within 7.6 points. While the Bluliners chances of winning remain slim, they do have a chance. The Pickers are done for the week - no one is skating on Sunday. The Bluliners will be dressing Reilly Smith and a goaltender. A long shot? Yes. A possibility? Also yes.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Cherry Pickers: 0 players; Bluliners: 2 players)
Cherry Pickers: None
Bluliners: Reilly Smith, Robin Lehner or Marc-Andre Fleury
Rocky Rocks: 32.4
Boulder Flyers: 25.1The Boulder Flyers outpointed Rocky Rocks 10.0 to 7.0 on Saturday, the 3.0 point gain not nearly enough as the only winless team in the league is still skating towards a loss, their deficit currently 7.3 points. The Flyers however still have Alexander Ovechkin loaded in their chamber, so GM Morgan is not without hope - a huge Ovechkin come-from-behind game unlikely, though a possibility as it’s been done many times before.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Rocky Rocks: 2 players; Boulder Flyers: 1 player)
Rocky Rocks: William Karlsson, Evgeni Malkin
Boulder Flyers: Alexander Ovechkin
Misconducts: 36.1
SC Cobras: 39.3
One of the better matches of the week finds the SC Cobras, 1-3, leading the Misconducts, 2-2, by 3.2 points - the Cobras outscoring their opponent 9.0 to 8.1 on Saturday. The final day of the week finds the Cobras with a slight edge - the needa-win team dressing two players while the Misconducts will be hanging their comeback hopes on one Jake Guentzel.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Misconducts: 1 player; SC Cobras: 2 players)
Misconducts: Jake Guentzel
SC Cobras: Jonathan Marchessault, Mark Stone
Baba Booey: 32.8
Lumberjacks: 29.4
There are only
two games on Sunday. Typically two-game affairs don’t garner much attention. Not so today as this storyline is a good one: Baba Booey - with no one playing on Sunday - leads by 3.4 points. The Lumberjacks - trailing by the same 3.4 points - still has four players gunning for points. Regardless of what team you support - the Booey's or the Jacks - the final day of Week 5 is going to be a nail-biter.
LAST DAY LINEUP (Baba Booey: 0 players; Lumberjacks: 4 players)
Baba Booey: None
Lumberjacks: Sidney Crosby, Alex Tuch, Kris Letang, Nicolas Hague
