The BHL & FHL will begin the Final stretch to the
2017 BHL PLAYOFFS
with 3 games on Tap and
playoff implications at an all time high ...
BHL Returns January 5th
Game 1 - Toe Dragons (7-5) V Les Castors (3-9)
A Toe Dragons win will snap a 3-game losing streak and put them just a single point from clinching the Division. A Beavers win would be 2 straight a first for Les Castors in the campaign.
Game 2 - Les Phoques (8-3-1) V Iceholes (6-6)
...
The Seals will Clinch the division with a win and a Pylons loss. A win will also allow Les Phoques to take the driver's seat for the Founder's Cup. The Holes will debut their "Blue" uniforms and look to secure a win to remain in the hunt for top spot in the Backyard division and a Conference Finals birth for the 4th straight season.
Game 3 - Top Cheese (5-7) V Les Pylones (7-5)
Once thought of as a definate Wildcard Team, Top Cheese actually now still have a shot at the Backyard Conference crown, but to do that they MUST win all 3 of thier remaining games and get some help. Les Pylones divisional destiny lies solely with The Seals. If the Seals can secure 3 points in thier last 3 games Les Pylones will finish 2nd in the division. If the Red Machine can win out and The Seals only secure 2 pts they will take the top spot.
FHL Returns January 10th
Game 1 - Les Bucherons (0-10) V Les Coqs (9-1)
Worst Vs First ... The Lumberjacks are looking for thier first win and have been alot more competitive following some shifty GM work and the demotion of BHL Goalkeeper Gaston Bruneau to help backstop the club. Les Coqs on the other hand are just one win from clinching the first place seed and a bye into the FHL Semis.
Game 2 - Sauce (8-2) V Fishsticks (5-5)
The Sauce have already clinched a bye and will now look to perfect thier game heading into the second season. The club must find a way to beat Les Coqs as both of thier losses have come at the claws of the mighty roosters. The Fishsticks are the most improved club of the FHL's inaugural season, after starting off 0-4 the Sticks have been able to rip off 5 wins in thier next 6 games and are poised to land themselves in third place to end the season.
Les Cones (4-4-2) V Tip Insects (4-5-1)
These two teams may produce the most exciting contest of the night as both teams are evenly matched and the match up will pit the two Camorra Hockey School Coaches against each other. These teams are chocked full of experienced BHLers and are very intriguing games to watch.
The second half should be a good show reguardless and with seeding in the Playoffs up for grabs the drama will only be that much more fun.
