Pee Wee A 19-20

[trans4761]

Running through some potential scenarios with this years playoff seedings I just now noticed GR plays an extra game.  16 reg games vs everyone else's 15.

Also, teams like Wave 1 only play their regular 15 while most other clubs played at least 1 exhibition game and at least 1 team (looking at you Kings 2) will have played 2.


So GR could potentially come out of this season undefeated and top seed if that loss is discarded at the end of the season.

/rant off

LMAO!!!!!  You mean GR played 16 and STILL didn't have to play the 2 best teams (Wave1, EHC)  lolololololololz!

Realistically GR is probably in for a very rough play offs. They haven't played many "hard games" so it looks good in the standings but it might be just smoke and mirrors. But when the season started no one knew who was really going to be strong and who was just a lot of hot air.

Goldrush is a legit team


Not as good as their parents think they are, but legit.

Goldrush is a legit teamNot as good as their parents think they are, but legit.

I have seen them play several times.  There is a reason I have them in the semi-final round.  As far as I am concerned, if the seeding play out as we all think...

Pool A
1 - Wave1
4 - Condors
5 - SDIA
8 - JD4 (head-to-head v Bears in 2 weeks... last chance for Bears)

Pool B
2 - Goldrush
3 - Empire
6 - JK2
7 - JD3

Pool A - Wave1, Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand the second is a huge coin flip!  My instinct says Condors.
Pool B - GR, EHC (other two have zero chance.)

Your group A looks very competitive

[BladesofSteel66]

Your group A looks very competitive

I said it in an earlier post...  Unlucky draw I guess, but Condors, SDIA, and JD4 all could beat each other on any given good/bad day, but I give Condors the edge. 

[trans4761]

This is playoffs....ANY of those 4 teams can beat each other.

[BladesofSteel66]

Wow..... JD3 got blown out by Gulls2?!?!?  *MINDBLOWN


They are so inconsistent it is ridiculous.  That's all about coaching.  They blow out typical bottom feeder teams, play tight in big games, but also get blown out.  Bad game maybe? 


They seem to have potential, but it might be too little, too late to get in the playoffs...

Crazy.  Watching teams currently ranked 7th, 8th, & 9th finish is going to be pretty exciting.  Good chance Ducks 3 will slip to 8th but can possibly lose their playoff spot to Gulls 1.  Next 2-3 games are crucial for both clubs and they both have some competition waiting.

I stand by my predictions!!!  Also, coming soon.... new POWER RANKINGS!

[AlexJ312]

No predictions for tomorrow?

[BladesofSteel66]

With 21 teams getting a 15 game schedule someone would need to play an extra game.

My seeding predictions:

1   Wave (1)        29 pts
2   Goldrush        28 pts   (Max 30 - Bakersfield Loss Dropped)
3   Empire HC        25 pts   (Max 27 - Win vs Condors)
4   Jr Condors        24 pts   (Max 26 - Win vs Empire)
5   SDIA           23 pts   (Max 25 - Win vs Ducks3)
6   Jr. Kings (2)    21 pts
7   Jr. Ducks (3)   21 pts   (Max 23 - Win vs SDIA)
8   Jr. Ducks (4)   19 pts
Wave 1   vs  Jr. Ducks (4)
Goldrush   vs   Jr. Ducks (3)
Empire HC   vs   Jr. Kings (2)
Jr Condors   vs   SDIA

UPDATE!!! - Quite the little shake-up at the bottom of the playoff race...  It's THE PUSH TO THE PLAYOFFS!!!
My seeding predictions:


1   Wave (1)        29 pts
2   Goldrush        28 pts   (Max 30 - Bakersfield Loss Dropped)
3   Empire HC        25 pts   (Max 27 - Win vs Condors)
4   Jr Condors        24 pts   (Max 26 - Win vs Empire)
5   SDIA           23 pts   (Max 25 - Win vs Ducks3)
6   Jr. Kings (2)    21 pts


1 thru 6 All LOCKED UP!  Then the sh!tstorm...  the cutoff for playoff points seems to be 18. 


Jr. Ducks (3) *17pts (2GR, fate in their own hands, but two impossible matchups vs Bears and SDIA.  Wow, just wow.)
Bears           *15pts (2GR, is that last game vs Wave2 an automatic win?  Will JD3 ruin their hopes?)
Gulls 1         *14pts (2GR, is game vs IcePups an automatic win?  Will the final game vs JD4 even matter?)


2-22-20 Bears v JD3... play-in game?!?!?


OUT!!!
Jr. Ducks (4) *15pts (1GR, screwed themselves by losing to Bears.  HUGE swing game.  Can they even beat Gulls1?)
Gulls 2 *16pts (1GR, MUST beat Goldrush for a shot and 18 pts.... sooooooo  yeah, goodbye)

[BladesofSteel66]

Basically,
if Gulls 1 wins out...  JD3 v Bears is a play-in game.
if Gulls 1 can't beat JD4, JD4, Bears/JD3 loser goes to GD...  JD3 is lowest. 

Three teams for the last two spots and it's really a toss-up. 

[BladesofSteel66]

What's probably gonna happen?

Bears win out (19pts)
JD3 beats SDIA (19Pts
