I was up in Scotland at the weekend and when the Cardiff score came through we all thought YES! a win in the Dundee Ice Arena and they might as well pencil Blaze name on the trophy. But we lost so its all open again. We're still in poll position though  |

After last weekends games, here are my predictions updated.
Belfast 70 pts
Blaze 70 Pts
Cardiff 69 Pts
Can Blaze clinch the title at home against London on 6th March?
Come on Blaze...Come on Thommo!

We can't afford to drop any more silly points from here on in

Right i've been having a look at this...
Looking at our remaining games i recon this is what we have to do at least do to win it:
AWAY Sheffield - DRAW
HOME Nottingham - DRAW
AWAY Basingstoke - WIN
HOME Belfast - WIN
AWAY Nottingham - DRAW
HOME Fife - WIN
AWAY London - WIN
HOME London - WIN
AWAY Belfast - WIN
AWAY Belfast - DRAW
That's the way i see it anyway....

Devils now have 4 BNL games on the trot which is probably worse for us given Dundee are trying to make sure they are in the BNL playoffs this season and Fife want revenge, Edinburgh are chasing that playoff spot with Dundee and Hull are no push over.
You guys have your boguey team Sheffield, and Nottingham are looking to get some momentum for the playoffs and Belfast are in teh hunt with you.
If anyone can predict the final standings can they give me this weeks lottery numbers aswell please, because i rekon you got the same odds on predicting both.

If your predictions are right, the title will be wrapped up on 6th March.
You have got Blaze ending up on 74 points!
Belfast can get only 77 points and you have Blaze taking 5 points of them.
Cardiff can get a 76 point maximum.
Belfast have to play Blaze 3 times, Cardiff twice at home, Sheffield home/away and the Panthers away.
Giants do finish with 6 out of their last 7 games at home though!
I agree with the Devil that it is hard to predict who will win the title, but about 70 points will do it I reckon.
Cardiff have the easier run-in, so are still very very dangerous.

It will still come down to one out of three (Barring a meltdown) with two weeks left

That's correct. Like it or not, blaze sides have a habit of falling at the last hurdle so i factored that in  . Carpo If your predictions are right, the title will be wrapped up on 6th March.
