CFHL 2 Weeks Go!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

  With two weeks to go it would appear that the 4 playoff teams are set but in one week seeds changed as the Who Gives a Puck took a solid 4 point lead now in the Norris over the Goon Crew.

Who Gives a Puck vs. USSR 5-1
Who Gives a Puck handed the USSR an ass whipping taking all but one category despite losing in goals.  With Lundqvist out for the Puck, Talbot has picked up the slack nicely in net getting 3 more wins and a .969 SV%.  Stamkos led all players with 12 PIM.  Backes had 3 assists a +3 and 4 PIM.  The victory put them back in first in the Norris and have pretty much eliminated the USSR from a playoff bid.

Chara added a goal for the Puck

Mayhem on Ice vs. Goon Crew 4-2
After a strong couple weeks the Goon Crew fell short and lost first place to the Puck in the Norris after the Mayhem gave them all they could handle.  The Goalies let the Crew down getting only 2 wins and a SV% of .924 compared to the Mayhem's 3 wins and .956 from Crawford and Mason.  Getzlaf was able to tally 3 goals for the Crew.  Datsyuk manged a goal and 3 assists for the Mayhem.

Ovechkin tallied a goal and assist for the Mayhem

Tavares netted a goal and assist in losing cause

Assassins vs. Krampus Carols 4-1-1
The Assassins took care of the Krampus Carols and solidified their playoff position.  Kunitz went goon crazy getting 18 PIM.  Unfortunately that was about all he did with no goals and no assists and a -1.  Zetterberg had a great week with a goal and 5 big assists.  Krampus Carols just couldn't muster enough offense as only one player had more than one goal and only 2 players had more than one assist.

Checkers vs. AshBusters 4-2
The Checkers pulled off the upset of the Smythe leading AshBusters and kept their slim playoff hopes alive.  They are basically out of it but if the Assassins go win less and the Checkers get at least 8 wins in the next two weeks they might be able to knock the Assassins out.  You just never know...They paid a price however, as the AshBusters put the smack down on them racking up 55 PIM.  Simmonds had 14, Subban had 15 and Letang had 24!!

Rask finally living up to his billing
