As the GMHL heads into the final weeks of the regular season, teams are battling for position to improve their chances in the playoffs, which are set to begin Sunday, February 21 for some teams.
The Moose have drastically improved our situation in the last two with some key additions to the roster, and some much improved play on the part of our younger players.
Sitting near the bottom in November with a 4 & 14 record, the Moose used some fine play in the GMHL College Showcase in Elliot Lake to build momentum and turn our fortunes around.
The Moose have rebounded with an 11-6-4 record since that time, culminating in 8th place with a win this week over the King Wild. In fact, that record could even have been 4 wins better, considering an OT losses to Deseronto and Brock, a Shootout loss to defending champion South Muskoka, and a heartbreaker at home, also to Deseronto, allowing a shorthanded penalty shot late in the game that won it for the Storm.
At it stands currently, King and the Moose are tied in points, but the Moose have the edge in head to head competition, the first tiebreaker used.
In fact, the Moose are only 3 points out of 7th place, a key position considering teams 1 through 7 automatically advance to the Quarter-Finals, while teams 8 through 11 must play an agonizing qualifying round to advance. The qualifying round consists of single game eliminations, with the winners playing a Best of Three to win the 8th spot for the Quarters. However, with single game playoffs, and even Best of Three's, anything can happen.
Nevertheless, the Moose have come along way in the last couple of months, and there is a lot of optimism that we can compete against anyone in the league, and could do some damage in the playoffs. Victories over Bradfor and Innisfil, and some close games against Deseronto and South Muskoka recently can attest to that.
There is a lot of parody in the GMHL this season, resulting in many close games regardless of standings, and that bodes well for the most exciting and interesting playoffs in league history.

The league has confirmed the latest GMHL entry - The Russian Red Wings. The league has just announced the team will play in Shelburne, ON, out of the Dufferin Recreational Complex, which is currently undergoing a multi-million dollar upgrade. The team will consist entirely of Russian players, and continues to increase the number of imports in the league, one of the strong suits of the league, and probably the single biggest reason the GMHL has silenced all its critics, and proven successful as we prepare for our fifth season in 2010-11.
