the difference between the Thunder and Admirals was 33.

This is the number of one of the Finish boys on the Admirals team.

5 goals
3 unassisted
He's a Big unit. Kind of like a Southland farm boy. Hard to bump. one particular goal he went through 3 Thunder players. there was No hole He made one!!!
He's fast, deceptive speed.

The Game was Very clean. Appeared little in the way of good solid checking.

So once he comes down with a stomach bug from eatting food delived to him last night from a South African named Sally. We should be expecting a much closer game today!!!

Fudge! last again!

Well that makes the board a little clearer.

Thunder needed points over the weekend, two losses at home to admirals probably leaves them needed to win six games straight to have a chance of the finals. Same for Stampede, who are 1 point ahead.

Swarm have really firmed themselves up as a finalist and a good chance for home advantage after two solid wins over Devils.

Devils didn't take the opportunity to distance themselves from the pack, if any one of the other three teams step up through to the end of the season they're a risk not to make the final.

Teams making 31 points are guaranteed into the final, but in reality 27 or 28 should do it. Devils would like three wins from their last four games, 2 wins and they could be vulnerable.

Devils vs Admirals in Akl will be a very important series

Haha i like how i got censored! Good to see admin are on the ball

not like you snuck it into a paragraph.  Hard not to notice when you write 3 words.

Thunder to win both games this weekend.
 Is Lenstra right to go or is his injury going to hold him back?

Can we have better forum topics than "NZIHL games for this weekend".  This not just because "this weekend" I am in the Bahamas (but I am) but the game numbers help..

how about dates since game numbers mean very little to anyone who doesn't reference the nzihl website?

I've done a new poll/thread for this weekend's games.
