The latest double sim is in, and the Saskatoon Wild had a strong performance, winning all four. First was a close game against the Miami Marauders, winning 3-2 in a shootout. The Wild’s second game was against the last place San Diego Marlins, and this one was anything but close. Saskatoon won this one in convincing fashion, taking it 5-0.
This is where it gets a little bit more interesting as Las Vegas and Mexico are both close to Saskatoon in the standings. The Wild took the Vegas game 5-3, and did not trail at any point during the game. The game against Mexico was another close one, and also a pretty low scoring game, with the Wild taking it 2-1. Furthermore, it was another shootout victory.
Although the Wild didn’t perform as well on the scoresheet in this latest sim, it appears that they found a way to win and have a strong grip on second place for the time being.
