I also just looked at remaining schedule and VP has an easier path. They should finish 4th ahead of TE. HVS will win a bunch but also lose some with their tough schedule, and likely finish 3rd.

Final Standings Prediction based on current standings plus taking into account difficulty of remaining games;
1) WML
2) TR
3) HVS
4) VP
5) TE
6) VR
7) TW
8) TA

VP vs. TE is fun first round matchup.

Only the top 6 make it.

HVS will beat VR easliy
TE will beat VP
HVS will then beat WML
TR will beat the Eagles in a close one
HVS and TR will battle it out and could go either way.

HVS isn’t beating anyone, 3 L in a row after tonight.

I disagree. Honestly not part of HVS. They play solid team hockey whereas the rest of A relies on their best players to dangle and score.

Completely disagree, several teams play complete team games with solid systems. Systems that peak at the right time, next 4 weeks will show the real competition. HVS has had an easy schedule to now.

WML have a good 3-man speed into the zone rush. TE relies really on one person to take 20 shots a game. TR have a couple to make plays but no system. Same for VP. HVS have actual designed plays. Only team I've seen with that. They don't have the high end talent but they use team play to make up for it.

A definite threat.

HVS play many of the top teams in January and Feb. they are good but losses will come just as WML, TR and TE are beating each other recently.

Eek. Just looked at HVS schedule. They definitely are a good team but they WML, TR a few times each over the next 5 weeks or so. Feels like a really battle for top 2 seeds and a bye.

Looking ahead to playoffs, seed 4 vs 5 could be a good match. Maybe TE vs VP. A lot can happen before then but looks that way.

I also just looked at remaining schedule and VP has an easier path. They should finish 4th ahead of TE. HVS will win a bunch but also lose some with their tough schedule, and likely finish 3rd.

For fun, I checked the upcoming schedules for top teams. Yes, I need a life. Based on someone's comment that any of the top 5 teams can beat anyone, here the number of games against the top 5 teams remaining on everyone's schedule:

WML - 7 of 10 games vs (TE, TR, HVS, VP)
TR - 4 of 8 games
HVS - 8 of 11 games
TE - 8 of 11 games
VP - 5 of 11 games

Seems like TR and VP could have some gains. Of course it doesn't mean WML will lose any of the games but it's just harder

Glitch in the schedule, WML has 9 games left and not 10. So 6 out of 9 games against top 5.
