My Prediction
Toronto Sceptres by 2When it comes to Professional Women's Hockey League matchups, there's always excitement in the air. You've got the New York Sirens making a visit to the Toronto Sceptres. When you start thinking about who's got the edge here, your mind might initially go to Toronto. Looking over their recent sequences, it's clear that the Sceptres are sliding a bit, like a car without enough snow tires on a wintery Canadian road. They lost their recent match to the Boston Fleet by 3, and were downed by Minnesota Frost by 3 points not long before that.
Let's mosey on over to the New York Sirens' rink now, shall we? Their recent matches suggest a wee bit of equipoise. They've managed to shutout Minnesota Frost and squeak by Montreal Victoire recently, but previously allowed the Ottawa Charge to snag a win on their own icy playground and lost a close one to the Toronto Sceptres.
If we dig deep into the annals of their past confrontations, Toronto has pulled ahead in three out of their last five encounters, leaving Sirens with two wins to bellow about.
Here's a bit of hard math that even my kindergarten teacher couldn't argue with - Toronto's regular season records stand tall at 12-2-5-9 compared to New York's 8-4-4-12. It clearly shows Toronto’s tour de force is a bit formidable.
I know you're eager to bet your buddy a beer on the outcome of this one, so let's just cut to the chase. While I'm sorely tempted to put my hypothetical money on New York's recent successes, Toronto did manage to squeeze out slightly more favorable results in the regular season. And just remember, you can't argue with numbers, but you also can't argue with my deadpan, slightly obnoxious charm.
Albert’s Prediction: Toronto Sceptres by 2.
