WEEK 20 (thru Friday)

The Badger Bob faithful were still wearing their game faces after Friday's action - many making makeshift signs to show support of their team - the relentless Bobs erupting for a league-best 23.8 points to draw to within 14.0 points of first place and the 2017-18 FHL Cup Championship.

Badger Bob: 54.1
Ice Hogs: 28.6­
Eric Staal (2g, 2a, 10.0 pts) and Connor Hellebuyck (34 save shutout) were the best players on Friday's ice, Badger Bob now a previously unimaginable stones-throw from the peak of the FHL. The Bobs outburst has also placed them comfortably in front of their H2H opponent, the dazed Ice Hogs now trailing by 25.5.

Misconducts: 30.0
Bluliners: 30.4­
The Bluliners still lead the Misconducts but this H2H battle is the farthest thing from GM Hamilton's mind, his under siege team on the verge of conceding one of the biggest leads in league history. GM Smalley finds himself in a better post-Friday mood, his 13-6 team still in the hunt for the best overall record and a first round playoff bye.

Ice Cats: 53.7
Vegas Vipers: 22.7
The blitzing Ice Cats have shown absolutely no sign of letting up, Mikael Granlund (2g, 2a, 10.0 pts) guiding his team to another substantial outing, the white-hot Cats now leading the prone Vegas Vipers by 31.0 points.

Wild Ducks: 29.4
Polar Bears: 39.9
The Pittsburgh Penguins played their first game of the week on Friday, thus it was no coincidence that the Wild Ducks finally showed signs of life, a strong 13.0 point effort lifting the Ducks to within 10.5 points of a vital victory.

Boulder Flyers: 34.9
Central Red Army: 38.0
The Central Red Army continue to keep the Boulder Flyers at bay, GM Buker's squadron leading by 3.1 points heading into a large 18-game weekend.

Mooses: 34.9
SC Cobras: 19.8­
The SC Cobras are having difficulty manufacturing points and thus are having difficulty cutting into the Mooses lead, GM McCormick's advantage now 15.1.
