Windsor's comeback win against London, capped off by a shorthanded game-winner, raises some interesting questions about these two division leaders. Is Windsor truly a contender, or was this a fluke? Can London maintain their top spot with defensive lapses like these? I predict a tight race to the finish in both divisions.

Several high-scoring games this weekend – Brantford’s nine-goal outburst against Sudbury being the most extreme example – have me wondering if we’re seeing an offensive surge league-wide. Are defensive systems failing, or are offensive players simply more skilled than in past years? What's driving this trend?

Saginaw's dominant win over Sault Ste. Marie, despite being outshot, highlights the importance of goaltending and opportunistic scoring. Could this be a sign of things to come for Saginaw, or are they destined for a mid-table finish? Share your thoughts on which teams are overperforming and underperforming this season.

Finally, the number of close games decided by shootouts or one-goal margins makes me think playoff races will be incredibly exciting this year. Which teams do you see as dark horses heading into the postseason? Let's hear some bold predictions!
