Med Hat is 4-5-1-0 in there last ten, and both Calgary and Lethbridge are ahead of them in the standings, and other teams have a better win%. Why would the Hat be in the top ten?

Very true. I was a little surprised to see the Pats even crack the top 10 after their recent little slide...but then again, they have one of the best records in the league.

good for the Pats, the magic number for that list is 15 wins or better it seems. Congrats, and I think if Lethbridge's winning ways continue they could debut higher than a 10 spot, hottest team in the leauge going into tonight, undefeated in regulation in their last 10. Again, congrats Regina, keep it up.
