The 2019 BTSH playoffs are right around the corner and there are an abundant of intriguing match-ups.  Our writers got together to discuss some of the match-ups that they’d like to see.  Enjoy!

Hookers vs Biters III

The other trilogy.

This game would feature two of the top four teams, so in all reality this could end up being one of the semi final matchups. Both teams have top 5 defenses. The Biters boast the #1 offense, while the Hookers have the #9 offense.

Going back to 2017, the Hookers are 4-1 against the Biters (5-1 if you count the playoffs), taking both of the teams matchups this season (going back to last season the Hookers have actually won 3 in a row against the Biters). Those two losses ended up being the only two regulation losses of the season for the Biters. Can the Hookers make it 4 straight wins against their division rival or would this be the game the Biters finally get over the Hookers hump?

The trilogy.

Some rivalries are media creations, as people need something to write about and try to force a conflict where there is none (I promise this is not one of those).  Some go one way, where an underdog continually punches up at a competitor that not only doesn’t fear them, but really doesn’t even think of them (sorry to my fellow Jets fans, but Jets/Patriots is a prime example of this one).  And some, the fun ones, are real, borne of a combination of vicious competition, sometimes animosity and usually a mutual respect (Islanders/Oilers in the 80s, Detroit/Colorado in the 90s, etc).  BTSH has a few of each kind, but the third are obviously the most exciting, and the best one currently going is without question Fuzz/Rehabs, a true rivalry with big games, big stars, monumental wins and devastating heartbreaks for both sides.  Let’s rewind a bit for those who may be unfamiliar…

After a miserable week of 90s songs anyone has ever heard of thrown on the Facebook page, and then for some reason perfume/cologne pictures, I demanded to do the 3 Stars. While the vast majority of you will hate these strictly hockey stars, much like your parents feeding you broccoli, it’s good for you, you just don’t know it.

But before I get started, Cheeky wanted to give a star to the Mop Guy from the prom. No.

Third Star

Joe M from Corlears Hookers

The playoffs this year is going to be off the chart. Never before have so many teams had a legit shot to win. The Hookers/Anklebiters game was stellar. Back and forth both teams went, before the Hookers constant pressure finally made the Anklebiters break with 2:20 left to go in the game. Joe M. scored the game winner to beat the #2 seed and provided the Lbs. a chance to clinch the #1 seed. But…

Fuzz flexed on Fresh Kills.

The good times keep rolling for the Pucks as they handled the Gremlins. (Can anyone stop these guys???)

Karma knocked down the Sky Fighters in OT with a sniper from Creeden.

Filthier got lucky against a wily Math club.

Gut Rot shocked Mega Touch by slipping one past Tuckman in OT.

With Campbell back in net Cobra Kai figured out how to win against the Butchers.

The Hookers continue to be the Biters’ kryptonite.

A severally hung over Demons team managed to get past the Riots.

Poutine got her groove back at the expense of the Dark Rainbows.

Rehabs took down LBStown in what felt like a shift in the balance of power.
