Rachel? \u00a0Are you ready yet???<\/p>\n

\"These<\/a>

These would have been up sooner, but we were waiting for a woman to get ready.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Math at Corlears Hookers
<\/strong>Talent abound on both sides, but this really might just come down to the ladies. Arguably the two teams with the strongest core of women in the league. But is it a little unfair that Math has two professional hockey players on that team? Edge goes to Math, but with an asterisk. Also, Sam\u2019s headband. Dave, take note: Eitel shoots high glove side (you owe Arthur a beer for that).<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Math by 1, If Joey can lay off Tinder for the entire game.<\/p>\n

Instant Karma vs Butchers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Two<\/a>

Two of these four will be making this face on Sunday. Take 5 or not.<\/p><\/div>\n

Both of these teams are off to a solid start this season. \u00a0While Karma has been playing a more defensive minded style and protecting leads, the Butchers have been an offensive juggernaut. \u00a0Pete D and Drake H are leading the league in scoring in the respective genders and could be more than Karma can handle. \u00a0One of them will be walking away with their first loss of the season.<\/p>\n

<stop trying to butter us up, Isaac><\/p>\n

Prediction: <\/em><\/em>Turnovers will be Karma\u2019s undoing with the Butchers taking this match by 2.<\/p>\n

LBs
<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Does<\/a>

Does Ali need to take a smiling lesson from Roman’s brother?<\/p><\/div>\n

BTSH! Do you know how great the Lbs are? No? Well good news! I am going to tell you. Let\u2019s start between the pipes, who doesn\u2019t love our ex-commish Timmy? He listened to us all whine to him for three years in that thankless role. Also, the actual<\/strong> NY Rangers call him pony boy. Moving on to the ladies, They are anchored by the blond bombshell Sasha duo. These ladies have been kicked BTSH ass for as long as I remember. As the unflappable captain, Ali\u2019s shit talking abilities might even rival her hockey skills. If they weren\u2019t good enough, they added rookie Liz Boylan who also looks lovely in white. Let\u2019s not forget Ken and Karsten, these guys are honestly too good at hockey to complain about anything, but that doesn\u2019t stop \u2018em. Nor does a 7 goal lead stop Scott from celebrating a goal. But he\u2019s getting better about that, since he keeps scoring goals. Also Nick\u2019s hair. I think the demons might put out 3 guys, 2 girls and a goalie.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Lbs by 3, with hearts, sunshine and puppies.<\/p>\n

Poutine Machine at Sky Fighters
<\/strong>It doesn\u2019t seem like Sky Fighters learned how to smile yet. Will this be the week? Even if they do, few things are more fun than watching Jerome\u2019s face after he scores. The more important battle of the week is between Olivier and Jo-Ann: who can curse and rant better in Quebecois?<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Sky Fighters by 2. Greg\u2019s use of emojis remains unparalleled<\/p>\n

Filthier at Mega
<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Happy<\/a>

Happy birthday, Brady! Somebody buy this kid a sundae.<\/p><\/div>\n

Watch out Dennis, Alex Eben Meyer is right behind you on the leaderboard. I hear the dynamic duo will be in Miami celebrating Suvins __th Birthday. You know what that means? Ann can\u2019t score any goals. Of note: Brady will also be celebrating his birthday, 14 years Suvin\u2019s junior.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Filthy by too many. Sucks that Brady is going to get beat with or without the old man.<\/p>\n

Fresh Kills vs Dark Rainbows
<\/strong>Congrats Kills. Last week you beat up a dude who never played in net before. \u00a0Be reaaaaalll proud of that. Ariel recently told me he no longer has speed, but as we know that kid has skill for days. Interesting, since Aaron has the speed for sure. I\u2019m just not sure it\u2019s enough to stop the juggernaut.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>FK by 3, and Abby takes home another monster bruise.<\/p>\n

Fuzz at Cobra Kai
<\/strong>Fuzz might think they scored a lot of talent (in addition to general disdain) but Cobra Kai is still secretly stacked. Not to mention that other-Rachel scored two goals last week…? I don\u2019t think anyone on the Fuzz has two goals. But this might be the week. Jeff loves to prove me wrong. Pete, please remind these kids that it\u2019s sneaker hockey.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Fuzz by 1, Glanzer -2.<\/p>\n

Riots at Gut Rot
<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sad<\/a>

Sad Gilligan. Needs a goal, not a suit.<\/p><\/div>\n

Gut Rot had a rough go last week, but I think that\u2019s going to end this Sunday. There is too much talent on that team to be held scoreless again. Not that Dave Del Rubio won\u2019t try his damnedest. I\u2019ve got my money on Gilligan getting one. Riots are looking strong this season, nearly pulling off an upset against the demons last week.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Riots by 3, but Gut Rot wins our hearts.<\/p>\n

Rehabs at Anklebiters
<\/strong>Is Showtime done Showtiming yet? Probs not. With Ryann showing up consistently, this team has all the tools. Is 50\u2019s Rob\u2019s sexism any match for Diana\u2019s cheekbones? Doubt it. Looks like Probie has learned how to hit the net, instead of my face. Ramirez (and anyone in a three-foot radius of the net) watch out for that shot.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Biters by 1, if Amy gets talking to Rob.<\/p>\n

Gremlins at WTP
<\/strong>WTP is still hungry for their first win, which must be tough for them spending the last 6 months watching the Caps win. They might be hungry, but Jamie is hungry for a milkshake, likes winning, and is a terrifyingly good goalie. Can the Gremlins make it through the game without yelling at the refs? Also, shoutout to WTP for running more than the required two ladies during parts of their game last week. Ophelia would approve.<\/p>\n

Prediction:\u00a0<\/em>Gremlins by 1, still nobody wants to hear about JW\u2019s +\/-.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
