My Prediction
Boston Fleet by 2Ah, the clash of titans we've all been waiting for; Ottawa Charge meets their arch-rival Boston Fleet. Let's break it down, like an overzealous janitor at a Lego convention.
Backtracking to the previous encounters between these two giants, Boston holds a significant edge with 4 wins out of 5 previous meetings. The Charge managed to punch one victory recently, but if we're looking at the past dalliances on the ice, Boston has been wearing the pants in this relationship.
Looking at the season records, the Charge seems to hold a slim upper hand with a record of 10-1-4-11, against Fleet's 8-6-4-8. But remember folks, with 6 overtime wins to their name, the Fleet isn't a team that bends easily under pressure.
Now, let's take a gander at the recent results. It seems like the Charge has been rollercoasting more than a kid on a sugar rush, with matches going both ways. But their recent defeat of the Fleet should bring some smiles in the Charge's locker room. Meanwhile, the Fleet appears to be doing the maritime version of the cha-cha, with an equal number of wins and defeats. Their recent loss to the Charge has the potential to leave a skid mark on their morale, though.
So, you ask, where's my money best placed? Honestly, it's as difficult as predicting what a cat will do next, which, spoiler alert, is impossible. But in the face of uncertainty, we often find solace in history, and history has Boston's name written all over it. Ottawa may shake things up, but for this one, I'd tip the scales in the Fleet's favor.
