The Brantford Bulldogs are on fire, sitting atop the OHL's East Division. Twelve wins in their last thirteen games is an impressive streak. Is this current run sustainable through the playoffs? Are they genuine contenders for the OHL Championship?

Lardis continues his incredible goal-scoring pace, now just shy of Kaliyev's single-season record. With the playoffs approaching, could the pressure get to him, or will he break the record and propel the Bulldogs to victory?

While Lardis shines offensively, the Bulldogs' defense and goaltending have also been key. Leenders' performance against Sudbury highlighted the team's resilience. How crucial will consistent goaltending be for their playoff hopes? Can their defense hold up against the league's top offenses?

Injuries are starting to pile up for the Bulldogs, with several key players day-to-day or week-to-week. Will these injuries derail their momentum heading into the playoffs, or does their depth give them enough firepower to overcome these setbacks?

Let's hear your thoughts. Who are you picking to win the Eastern Conference? Are the Bulldogs the team to beat, or is another team poised to make a deep playoff run?
