Final Weekend Determines Seeds

The final weekend of NILL games proved pivotal.  With wins or losses, seeds would be determined for next weeks playoffs.  The Good, the Bad and the Ugly pulled out a close one goal win over Brainerd giving them the #1 seed in the playoffs.  With a win, Brainerd would have been the #3 seed since the Jaxx later dropped a close game to eventual #5 seed Flying Dutchmen.  The Jaxx pick up the #3 seed (and could have been #2 with a win) while Brainerd gets the #4 seed based on wins against common opponents with the highest seed (the Jaxx defeated #1 seed Uglies while Brainerd did not).  The Grizzlies picked up the #2 seed with a close one goal win over #6 seeded Illuminati.  In the season finale, The Saints picked up their first win over ReLaxin.  The Saints remain the #8 seed while ReLaxin remains the #7 seed.

Remember that you will not be allowed fill-in players from other teams for the playoffs.  IF you have an injury on your team, you may be allowed a fill-in player for your game.  Please address this before the game with the commissioner at the scorers table.  This also means that if your team does not have a goalie, you will have to suit up one of your players to play goalie

Also, I lost a LOT of orange game balls last week.  If you happen to find one somewhere, in your bag, on the floor of your car, whereever, please just drop it off on the scorers table at this weekends games.  Thank you!

Scores and standings are updated and stats will be updated soon.
