RECORD

NSHL.com SAYS

1. Traders

1.

4-0 1.000

If the Traders trade for four new brooms would the Traders trade for four series sweeps?

2. Thistles

6.

4-0 1.000

If the Thistles can unwrap the mystery that is the Crunch they may yet get the chance to play for the Neely Cup.

3. Lizards

14.

4-0 1.000

The Lizards pulled it off against a weaker sister club. What will happen when they face off against a real man's team?

4. Muffs

2.

4-1 .800

With only minor heart palpitations the Muffs pulled it out. I mean off.

5. Crunch

13.

4-1 .800

After finishing 13th overall in the regular season, the Crunch are in the second round against the Thistles. It's déjà vu all over again!

6. Thieves

9.

4-2 .666

Does it really matter if the Thieves or the Foo win this series?

7. Foomanchu

7.

4-2 .666

Ok, that wasn't so bad. But what have you done for us recently?

8. Infantry

4.

4-3 .571

Did the Infantry wait until they saw the whites of the Louds eyes? Will the Muffs give them that much time?

9. Loudmouths

3.

3-4 .429

OUT! The first tragedy of the NSHL7 playoffs. Expect to hear demands for divisional realignment coming from Westwood.

10. Eagles

8.

2-4 .333

OUT! There will be no on ice Spirit-Eagles series this post season.

11. Spirit

5.

2-4 .333

OUT! See comment above.

12. Stompers

10.

1-4 .200

OUT! Never mind what we said earlier about .500 in the playoffs.

13. Psychosis

11.

1-4 .200

OUT! Did anybody besides LC really think that Langenbrunner would help?

14. Stranglers

15.

1-4 .200

OUT! One must presume that the team nickname comes from their perpensity to choke!

15. Ice Terrors

16.

0-4 .000

OUT! A new broom makes a clean sweep.

16. Scorpions

12.

0-4 .000

OUT! Not as much sting as was advertised.

17. Blades

17.

34-35-11

Did not qualify (DNQ). The best of the worst would have been 3rd in the Nystrom, 2nd in the Schultz and 4th in the O'Reilly. Could it be the curse of the GTA teams?

18. Booze Hounds

18.

26-43-11

DNQ. The other Semenko team that would have made the playoffs in the Schultz division.

19. Useless Twits

19.

27-45-8

DNQ. Even the Twits would have made the playoffs if they were in the Schultz Division.

20. Blazers

20.

26-47-7

DNQ. Couldn't make the playoffs even in their Schultz division.

21. Fat Guys

21.

26-50-4

DNQ. Who ranked them at 13?

22. Highlanders

22.

21-45-14

DNQ. They played some decent hockey at times this season. Just not many times.

23. Buzzards

23.

17-50-13

DNQ. Thirteen tied games?

24. SunDogs

24.

18-58-4

DNQ. On a bright note, the SunDogs set no league records for futility. And you thought that the Stranglers were bad in NSHL6!
