Riga on the cusp on missing the playoffs

[Hoopydog 195]

After a promising S76 which saw the Riga Reign make the playoffs, they now find themselves needing a couple of miracles in order for them to squeeze into that last wildcard spot in the European conference. They currently sit in 7^th place, 5 points behind both Malmo and Davos but they do have a game in hand over both teams. With only 3 games left (4 for Riga) can the Reign pull off the unthinkable ad make the post season.

 

They don’t have the easiest of run-ins however, as they play 3 of the top 6 teams in the league, those being Seattle, Warsaw and Toronto, as well as a game against Calgary who have proven to be a thorn in the side of the Lions this season. If they want to pull this off, they will need both top performances from their offensive units, which have been somewhat lacking this season on top of both of the teams in front of them to slip up so that they slide in and secure that spot in the playoffs.
