\nDark Rainbows (12-4-0-1) vs. LBS, Inc. (11-4-0-1)<\/strong>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 4:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS, Inc. leads 6-5-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This makeup of a “rain fears” game features the top two teams in the Schloeder Division, the Dark Rainbows and LBS, Inc.\u00a0 After a tough three game stretch, the Dark Rainbows have rebounded with consecutive wins against the Gouging Anklebiters and Tuques.\u00a0 Captain Sean Reynolds has led the team by example, as he has recorded three goals during these two wins.\u00a0 LBS, Inc. enters the game headed in the opposite direction, as the Corporation has lost its last two games following an eight-game winning streak.\u00a0 To add insult to inury, both of these losses came at the hands of teams with losing records at the time of the game.\u00a0 With only three weeks left in the regular season, the outcome of this game could determine the Schloeder Division champion.
\nKeys To The Game:<\/strong>
\n1. Despite sitting in fifth place, the Dark Rainbows only have a goal differential of +3.\u00a0 They have shown heart by winning a lot of close games, but when they lose, it’s usually not pretty.\u00a0 Goaltender John Meyer will need to keep the game close for his team to win.
\n2. LBS, Inc. forward Karsten Pichon leads the league with 24 goals.\u00a0 He enters this game riding a six-game scoring streak.
\n3. With the Rainbows and LBS, Inc. each playing\u00a0a tough game earlier in the afternoon, stamina and depth will be crucial in this matchup.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows.\u00a0 They seem to be back on track.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> No pick.\u00a0 Derek will be reffing this game.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 4.5 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 12:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Mathematics lead 4-1-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> These Woodsworth Division rivals played to a tie in their first meeting of the season, with the Mathematics scoring the equalizer with 10 seconds remaining in regulation.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 2 Meyers.\u00a0 With the game scheduled at noon, no one will be there to watch anyway.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 12:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous leads 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous won two games last weekend, shutting out the Mighty Squirrels 6-0 and defeating the Rehabs 5-2.\u00a0 The two wins vaulted the team into a tie for second place in the overall standings.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Filthy Gorgeous.\u00a0 Since the Sky Fighters are designated as the home team, will we finally see the electric lime jerseys?
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 3.5 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 1:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> The Happy Little Elves enter this game having knocked off the Denim Demons and Sky Fighters in successive weeks.\u00a0 However, this week will be another tough contest, as their opponent,\u00a0the Corlears Hookers, handed the Denim Demons their first regulation loss of the season last week.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers.\u00a0 They’ll hand the Elves their tenth regulation loss of the season.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 3 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 1:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Gouging Anklebiters lead 10-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Gouging Anklebiter Sarah Moore will seek revenge against her old team, the Tuques, in this contest.\u00a0 However, she harbors no ill-will\u00a0towards former teammate\u00a0Bill Monahan, who is a sweetie.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Gouging Anklebiters.\u00a0 All of the Anklebiters are sweeties.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Tuques.\u00a0 I’m sure she’d find that newcomer Shafiq Perry is a sweetie too, if she got to know him.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 4 Meyers.\u00a0 Yes, the revenge factor is that strong.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 5-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> With $howT!m3 now “retired”, the Rehabs will have to look elsewhere for inspiration during their games\u00a0and general buffoonery on btsh.org.\u00a0 Thus far, the leading candidate is Rob Blandi.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Rehabs.\u00a0 Blandi is also favored to crash through the fence and land on 10th Street.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows.\u00a0 The Rainbows offense will prove too tough to handle.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 1 Meyer. John.<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> LBS, Inc. leads 8-6
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> These two teams last met in the 2008 playoff quarterfinals, when\u00a0LBS, Inc. defeated the Unicorns in a shootout.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 3.5 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 3:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Fresh Kills leads 4-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Fresh Kills may have finally returned to their championship form, as the team has now won its last three games.\u00a0 Several players on the team cite the week 18 airing of the legendary\u00a0“Hollywood” Jeff Lesser’s documentary as their source for motivation.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Fresh Kills
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Fresh Kills.\u00a0 The team seems to have really clicked in the last few weeks and are looking for another strong finish to the season.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 3 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 3:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Mexican Standoff leads 3-2
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> After a slew of tough losses,\u00a0the Dojo\u00a0finally had a game break in\u00a0its favor last week, as the team stunned LBS, Inc. in a shootout.\u00a0 Will Kuhns led the way for Cobra Kai, as he scored the game-tying goal and the only goal of the shootout.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Mexican Standoff.\u00a0 They played respectably against What The Puck last week.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> Cobra Kai.\u00a0 They finally have some momentum.
\nWatchability:<\/strong> 2 Meyers<\/p>\n
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 4:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> What The Puck leads 10-2
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This matchup pits What The Puck’s top-ranked offense against the Denim Demon’s top-ranked defense.\u00a0 In addition, the Demons trail first place What the Puck by three points in the standings.\u00a0 As a result,\u00a0this game will be crucial if the Fightin’ Rubens intend to claim the Prince of Weyersberg Trophy for the\u00a0team with the best regular season record.
\nEli\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck.\u00a0 Larry really wants that trophy.
\nDerek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> What The Puck
