"Last year was a bit of a wake up call for us," said Chicago GM D...

Congrats to the Stars
(Preview)
Congrats to Ryan and his Stars for a great playoff run!
I wasn't too sure how my roster would match up against your D orientated team and Thomas's insane numbers, but fortunately my PP chose the right time to catch fire.
And now onto Kirk and the Thrashers and Chicago's third BRHL2 Stanley Cup final...

(Preview)
Not only for their first ever playoff birth, but for taking my Hawks to game 7 after being down 3-1 in the series! I have to admit that I was a little worried about today's game after losing games 5 & 6 to you even though I outshot you both games by a 74 to 36 margin! Kudos on great run Dave!

Standings
(Preview)
Just a couple things I've noticed. Perhaps this gets sorted out when the season is finally done but here's a couple things: (1) I don't see how the Coyotes can actually make the playoffs. The output says they haven't been eliminated but, factoring in total wins, I think the Coyotes are done. (2) Th...

Trade Deadline

As if now the BRHL2 Trade Deadline has been set for Midnight EST on Thursday April 21. Most teams should be around the 60 game mark, which is why the delay in setting the deadline. I will confirm this date by Wednesday on both here and on the portal. But for now plan as the deadline being next Thursday.
