WEEK 25 (thru Saturday)

Auston Matthews scored 4 goals (14.0 points) in his first game of the season. The rookie phenom will need a similar performance in the final game if his team is to capture their third FHL Cup, the Ice Hogs trailing the Wild Ducks by 23.3 points.

The Battle for the FHL Cup
The Ice Hogs were the best Saturday team, tweaking the twine for 22.0 points. The number however will likely be filed under "too little, too late," the Hogs deficit still large with only a 10-game Sunday left to be played.

The Bout for the Money
With one day remaining the Bluliners are loosely holding onto the $175.00 money card, leading the 4th place Central Red Army by just 1.9 points. The Misconducts are next in line, a 9.5 point Saturday placing the 5th place team just 6.5 points behind the cash.

The Scrap for the Laughing Bag
The Boulder Flyers uncorked 15.7 points on Saturday, GM Morgan's team now 19.8 points clear of the basement. The battle for the Bag now appears to be a two team race, the 11th place Between the Pipes currently 3.0 points better than the last place Silicon Valley Slashers.

Championship Match, H2H Playoffs

Wild Ducks: 35.0
Ice Cats: 24.5­
The Ice Cats explosives mostly fizzled (again) on Saturday, a sleepy 6.1 effort dropping GM Cutshall's squad 10.5 points behind the Wild Ducks; a team that could soon walk away with not only the grand prize ($500.00) for winning the FHL Cup, but also the $100.00 payout for bagging the H2H title.

Consolation Match, H2H Playoffs

Misconducts: 27.5
Central Red Army: 49.5­
The Misconducts were better than the Central Red Army on Saturday but the damage done during the week remains catastrophic, the Army still leading by a fat 22.0.
