Anything can happen in the playoffs. Good teams have a bad game or two...bad teams find another compete level...one or two bad bounces can make all the difference.Guest wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2025 8:55 am Some observations so far...

- Barrie has shown in tournaments this year a lack of success in meaningful games.
- NN has been able to compete with top teams in tournaments this year. Some unexpected wins and some close loses...no real blowouts but they are in a weak playoff loop. If they bring it every game regardless of opponent skill, they will ride the wave all the way to the Red Hats.
- Guelph is not a very skilled team, but can bring a certain amount of intensity and pressure to a game, basic hockey, that that throws their opponents off their skilled game when taken lightly.
- CRC is also in a weak playoff loop, so them squeaking through finishing in second wouldn't be a surprise. If i were to guess before the playoffs started who would snag the coveted 4th spot behind OR, HH, NN I would have said CRC or BE
