Fuck there are going to be some epic battles. 8 games against the albortions and 7 against the gorfs and the laughs followed by 2 playoff rounds. I hate them even more alreadyStrangelove wrote: ↑Fri Dec 18, 2020 6:35 pm https://twitter.com/FriedgeHNIC/status/ ... 4237134848

As if we needed more. Kill, crush, destroy full on. Yikes! Get more points than every other team in Canada to get a good placement in the playoffs so you can try and beat at least two of them again. One in round one and another in round two or you play no American based teams at all for 20/21.Cherry Picker wrote: ↑Fri Dec 18, 2020 8:05 pm They’ll play each team even more than that in the seven team division. They’ll have to play each of the other six teams nine times and two of those teams ten times to make the 56 game season. (9 x 6) + 2 = 56
In this one season we’ll be able to play the other teams in Canada just enough to develop a hatred towards each of them that should last us for the rest of our lives.
It will either get boring and a little repetitive, or turn into a bloodbath.Cherry Picker wrote: ↑Sat Dec 19, 2020 7:37 am Was thinking ten games against Calgary, then playing them in a seven game series in the first round. Then meeting Edmonton for a seven game series in the second round after having played them ten games during the season. So there is a possibility of playing thirty-four games against the Alberta teams in about a six month span.
