Strangers Fall, Second Place Up for Grabs Again

The Cryptic Stench defeated the Strangers last night 8-6 to close out the regular season for both teams. The Red Army, who finish their regular season Thursday night versus Prestige Worldwide, suddenly have a whole lot to play for. The Strangers' loss puts the second seed back on the table, and a Soviet win, tie, or overtime loss vaults Mother Russia back into the spot she has resided in for much of the year.

"I don't think we were expecting another chance at the two seed," Captain Steve Hand said. "It's great, I think everyone on our team knows why it's important and what's at stake. I think the playoffs start one game early for everyone in Russia."

I plan on posting a pregame write up sometime tomorrow so stay tuned.
