Alternate History Sports / The AltHL Season 2022

Boston and Milwaukee hold onto the top spots. Minnesota joins them at three. Calgary, who two weeks ago was ranked 11th, takes the four-spot. Sorry, Steel, but the Fishers are at sixth, not fourth.

LL Cool J once said "Mama said knock you out", however, I didn't knock you out, you knocked yourself out by not picking as well as others. This week we came down to the tiebreaker again, so here's some standings.

5-4 DireBear
4-5 Kingsfan
6-3 Magic
4-5 Steelman

So the tiebreaker between Kingsfan and Steelman came down to who was closest to the Arrows high score of 174 points. Kingsfan predicted 153 points, Steelman predicted 159, so Steelman survives to see the top 3.

Thank you for participating Kingsfan!

With a hard fought win over the Edmonton Wildcats, the 48ers move to 6-1 on the season and have sole possession of first place in the Central. But it's a long season, and a small lead, so we need to keep skating hard and doing what we do best: hit people and block shots, work as a team and set up others. We head out on the road this week, as we head to Denver to face our division foes, the Bighorns. We're going to bring our standard road Ivory set to Denver, led by top scorer on the season, Nico Hischier!

With a tough loss against the Milwaukee 48ers, the Wildcats drop to 4-3 on the season and fall further behind in the race for the West. We head back to Edmonton for this week's game, where we'll have to slow down the East-leading Racers, and we're in the home blues once again. We'll hope to have a more well-rounded performance from our team than we had last week, but we certainly won't discourage W Jeff Skinner from scoring 4 goals and 3 assists again. #WhatTeam #EDMvsCLT

Well, that's fantastic. Winnipeg made me lose twice, on the ice and in the knockout. The Owls fall back under .500 with the enormous loss we suffered at the hands of the Arrows. No time to sulk as we stay home to welcome the Detroit Angels on their Quebec tour's second and last stop. Our big rival Montreal gave them a loss last week, and we must make sure that they leave the province of Quebec without a single win. We are again wearing our standard home set and must not repeat our errors from last week, and our defence, led by our featured player of the week, Kris Letang, must step up to stop the Angels. #RevengeOfTheHoot #QUEvsDET

For openness and clarification, the Edmonton Wildcats are taking offers on goalies. I've reached out to some owners individually but haven't worked anything out yet. That said, while I was previously looking to free up a roster spot, that may or may not be the case anymore, so feel free to offer picks and/or players.

All four of our goalies (why did you think we wanted to trade one?) are on the table for the right price. Reach out to me privately if you'd like to make an offer.

And with that elimination, our 8th, we're down to just two remaining people. Let's see how week 8 shook out.

8-1 DireBear
7-2 Magic
4-5 Steelman

Thanks for playing Steel, but it was just not quite what was needed to advance. For Magic and Dire, make your picks!

With a big win over the Bighorns, Milwaukee's Finest keeps everything rolling along, 1 game up on the division. However, the schedule doesn't let up, as this week we host the Rovers. With Boston at fourth in the league in scoring, we're going to have to keep scoring to keep ahead of the rest of the Central. Newly recalled center Dylan Cozens had a huge week last week, and looks to keep it rolling, showing off this week's uniforms with the traditional brown jerseys.

Well, the Racers didn't make it easy on us, but the Wildcats came out with a hard-fought win to stay above .500 and break our pattern of alternating two-game winning and losing streaks. This week's game should be a bit easier, but Saskatoon made it close against Winnipeg, so I wouldn't be Shocked if they did the same to us. That said, the team is very happy with the win last week - just ask C Joel Eriksson Ek, whose three goals and two assists helped the Cats to their best offensive output this season. #WhatTeam #SSKvsEDM

We almost lost to the team I (technically) owned for 23 minutes, but a big Sunday gave us the win over Detroit. Now the Owls head south for our first game outside Canada or Canada-adjacent states in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Owls took down the Racers last year, but the ownership change in Charlotte has made them into a better team, it seems, so we'll have to rely on our best players, like this week's featured player, Adrian Kempe, to score many points if we want to be victorious. We are wearing our standard away set this week (Grey-White-Navy-White). #RevengeOfTheHoot #QUEvsCLT
