CFHL Update #6


 
The regular season end is quickly approaching.  Only 2 weeks to go in the regular season.  There are 4 teams battling for the final 2 spots, separated by only 4 points.  USSR and Who Gives a Puck sitting at spot 5 and 6 tied with 75 points.  Assassins at 73 points and the Goon Crew with 71.  


Big match up this week between the Puck and the Crew.  Crew needing a big week to improve playoff hopes.  USSR taking on top team Raisins, in a game where they will need to hold the teams below them at bay.  Assassins take on the Checker, after shutting out the Skull Crushers but then getting shut out by the Mayhem!


Here's a look at last week's action...

The White Mambas led the week surprisingly in goals with 14 beating the Skull Crushers 5-0-1.  Three players for the Mambas had 3 goals a piece; Auston Matthews, Mathew Barzal, and Bayden Point.  The Skull Crushers have apparently packed it in for the season.

Goon Crew were tops for the week in assists with 20 in their narrow victory over the Raisins 3-2-1.  Every player on the Crew had at least one assist with Brenden Dillon and Kyle Connor having 3 each.  Raisins still holding onto the number one spot by 2 points.

Connor had 3 helpers for the Goon Crew

Checkers are living up to their name leading the week again in hits with 53, but lose to Who Gives a Puck 3-2-1.  It was a violent game.  Puck almost matched the checkers in hits with 51! Ramus Ristolainen for the Checkers had 14 hits.

Mayhem led the league this week in PPP with 8 PPP in their shutout of the Assassins.   Guess it makes a difference when you play somebody other than the Skull Crushers.  Kirill Kaprizou and Cale Makar both had a pair of PPP.  They also led the league in goalie wins with 3, with Cam Talbot putting up good numbers again, with 2 wins and a SV% of .942.

The USSR and Krampus Carols skated to a 3-3 tie.  Radko Gudas punished the Krampus however with 23 hits!!  Krampus managed 3 goalie wins all from Grubauer.  

Gudas is just a beast.


Skater of the Week:  Gabriel Landeskog, Raisins, 3 goals, 4 assists, 3 PPP and 6 hits.

Goalie of the Week: Sergei Bobrovsky, White Mambas, 2 wins, .963 SV% and 1 shutout
