Week 4 picks:
“Muffler” Mike:
PHI @ LV
Philadelphia. The Wings sweep the home-and-home series, building more confidence and chemistry. Will the Desert Dogs ever break the Curse of 13?
SASK @ ROC
Saskatchewan. Despite their record, Rochester is no pushover, but it’s hard to bet against a Rush team that is showing true championship potential by winning razor-thin games.
HLF @ Col
Colorado. The Mammoth typically heat up in the second half of games. Bad recipe for a Thunderbirds team that so far has struggled to hold a lead late in both of their games.
GA @ SD
San Diego. The Seals will be looking for some payback to even up the 2-game series with the Swarm. Let’s also note this matchup could certainly be an early Finals preview.
Shawn:
Philadelphia vs Las Vegas
Pick – Philadelphia
The Wings won convincingly in the first of this home-and-home series and I don’t see much changing. Las Vegas is struggling to put the pieces together. Meanwhile, Philly has turned a corner.
Saskatchewan vs Rochester
Pick – Saskatchewan
Even with Robert Church this is a deadly Rush team. Rochester has played well in recent games but the Rush have all the momentum.
Halifax vs Colorado
Pick – Colorado
Halifax is licking their wounds after losing to games that got away from them. They maybe playing desperate but they may grab the sticks a little too hard and you can’t do that against a Colorado team that’s found their groove again.
Georgia vs San Diego
Pick – Georgia
This is a very resilient Swarm team with a ton of talent. San Diego just isn’t as dominant as they once were and Chris Origlieri has been fighting it to start the season.
Gary:
Philadelphia vs. Las Vegas
Philadelphia wins.
I really like what I’m seeing in this Wings team. It truly is a team effort again. Look for a lot the same this week as we saw last week. If the defense can shut down Hannah and Donville again, this could get ugly.
Saskatchewan vs. Rochester
Saskatchewan wins.
I think this Saskatchewan team is one of the most underrated teams we have seen in many years. But, Rochester is no slouch either. Look for this to be a very tight game that is decided late.
Halifax vs. Colorado
Colorado wins.
This was my coin toss game. Both teams have shown moments of greatness and both teams have showed inconsistencies. I give a slight edge to the home team in this game. The “Loud House” is going to play a factor in this game.
Georgia vs. San Diego
Georgia wins.
This is my game of the week! Both are extremely talented and savvy teams. Look for the combination of Jackson and Thompson to drive Origlieri crazy in the Seals goal.
Pat:
Philadelphia vs. Las Vegas
Philadelphia
Saskatchewan vs. Rochester
Saskatchewan
Halifax vs. Colorado
Colorado
Georgia vs. San Diego
San Diego
Caden:
Philadelphia vs Las Vegas
Pick – Philadelphia
The Wings handled Vegas quite easily in my opinion and I genuinely can’t see this changing in anyway, expect the Wings to walk away with a win
Saskatchewan vs Rochester
Pick – Saskatchewan
The Rush have surprised me to say the least, 2 huge wins in close games back to back after being written off, I expect the Rush to handle this one quite easily, especially with how Rochester is struggling to start the year
Halifax vs Colorado
Pick – Colorado
The Mammoth are gonna be out for revenge after a game they so desperately wanted to win, and who better to take on then a winless Halifax, I’ll take Colorado here
Georgia vs San Diego
Pick – Georgia
The Seals are gonna be out for a revenge win over the Swarm, but I feel Georgia has taken that next step and are gonna be hard to take down at this moment in time, I’ll take the Swarm
