BRHL2 Playoff Preview: Toronto (4) vs New York Rangers (5)

Chris Mason has been leading the Rangers Revival as they hope to get through the first round against Toronto. Meanwhile, Toronto is annoyed about playing Buffalo 8 times...

BRHL2 Playoff Preview - Buffalo (1) vs Montreal (8)
(Preview)
Montreal secured a playoff spot with one game to go with a must-win game over Florida. Trailing Florida by just one point, a 4-1 win gave them that final playoff spot. That's the good news, the bad news is that they're playing Buffalo. A team that all but secured a playoff spot halfway through the season...

Colorado gets lucky...
(Preview)
Colorado's game winner was scored at 13:39 of the third period, however, I think Calgary have a right to be annoyed at the sim. Patrick Marleau (who assisted on the goal) was just about to exit the box after his penalty for unsportsmanlike-behaviour ended at 13:40. Crazy sim.... http://www.brhlhoc...
