Reapers playoff hopes

[HatrickRoy 22]

                        

  In the second round of the playoffs, the Philly Reapers are leading the San Diego Marlins 3-1 in their series, effectively putting the 'chokehold' on them. The Reapers only need one win in today's games to advance to the third round, against the winner of the Mexico City Kings and the Las Vegas Aces. In that series, the Kings also have a chokehold on the Aces, being up 3-1. So, if all goes like it's gone so far, it would set up a Kings-Reapers final. The two best teams of the regular season, and I think the two best overall teams. I still think we have a better team, but anything could happen in the playoffs.

 

    So far, I'm pretty satisfied with the performance of Rusty Knale. I know he isn't getting much ice time, but his points are decent compared to the regular season. He's scored 2 goals and has an assist in 8 games. He also has a +5 plus/minus, which is good enough for top ten in the league. He has 13 hits and 14 penalty minutes, great stats for a gritty defenseman. Getting ranked pretty high on some of the draft lists is cool too.
