CCHL POWER RANKINGS FOR 1/25/20...

  The newest CCHL Power Rankings don't have a lot of big changes in them but are still interesting nonetheless. The Icecats cut significantly into the Falcon's lead and make no mistake, Fort Erie and Siberia seem to be the top two teams at the trade deadline.  Then comes a cluster of three teams (HAM, SPR and SUD) that fall in after the top two. Just behind that trio we see Dayton and the Puffin. After them, Gillam is the best of the bunch and 7 other teams fighting for four playoff spots. Twenty games or so remain for most teams and we should see some clarity this time next week, not a lot but a sudden hot or cold streak with dwindling games remaining can reveal what the playoff field may wind up as.

LOOKING AT THE CANOSA CONFERENCE: The top five teams seem set in the Conference, with just the final seedings to be determined. Victoria holds a slim three-point lead over the charging Millers who hold a game in hand in the battle for the last post-season berth in the Conference.

OVER IN THE CORFIELD CONFERENCE: Only the top three teams seem safely bound for the playoffs with everybody a muddle behind them. Of note is the recent surge by the Parry Sound Orrsmen who, on the heels of an 8-2-0 stretch, sees them just six points behind 6th place Capeside.

See you next week!
