Weaker teams are always more dangerous when the games mean nothing. PG took it to everett tonight, kamloops to victoria last night. Its been that way in every league for years and years.
Nonetheless, i stand by my opinion the team is playing much better the last 7 games, and if healthy probably win all 7. Less about injuries, everyone gets them, but i feel its the types of players missing that has hurt them. No sniper/finisher in bleackley, and the toughness/physicality of Polei.
