Clinching conference math
Here are the magic numbers:
To make it impossible for Barrie to win the conference, it would take just ONE win or Barrie loss.
To make it impossible for North Bay to win the conference, it would take a combination of TWO Oshawa wins and North Bay losses.
To make it impossible for Sudbury to win the conference, it would take a combination of THREE Oshawa wins and Sudbury losses.
To make it impossible for Kingston to win the conference, it would take a combination of THREE Oshawa wins and Kingston losses.
If all goes right, it can happen this weekend which could offer some valuable rest time over the last few games.

Re: Clinching conference math
Gens really just need a win Sunday. IMO no team is winning every game while we lose everyone.

Re: Clinching conference math
Sunday could very well be the game that clinches 1st in the conference.
As of tonight, Kingston can only max out at 88 points, North Bay 86, Sudbury 86 and Barrie 83. We have 83 heading into Peterborough Thursday.
It was just last month that at one point, Sudbury was only 2 points behind us. Now the gap is 13 points and almost insurmountable.
Here's to wins in Peterborough on Thursday, Mississauga on Friday and at home against Kingston on Sunday!

Re: Clinching conference math
Getting closer!
A Gens win tonight eliminates North Bay. A Gens win and a Wolves loss to Guelph eliminates Sudbury. After tonight, we could just be looking at Kingston as the final hurdle.

Re: Clinching conference math
If the generals win today they finish the night with 85 pts, if sudbury loses tonight the most points they could get on the season would be 84 (7 games * 2 pts = 14 pts, 70+14 = 84).
I thought i did the math that if a sudbury lost and a generals win, they would clinch tonight. Did i do something wrong?

Re: Clinching conference math
That's correct that a Gens win and Wolves loss would mean Sudbury can't catch the Gens and it would also mean the conference title is out of reach for North Bay but you're forgetting about Kingston. Kingston has played only 58 games and they have 68 points so they can still get to 88.
If the Gens win, they'd have 85 points. Even if Kingston loses to Belleville tonight, they could still mathematically get to 86. Kingston actually has a home-and-home with the Bulls so the earliest the Gens can clinch is tomorrow evening but clinching on a night where the team doesn't play is lame. I hope it happens Sunday. Guess who the Gens are playing against? Kingston! How perfect! Not to mention, a tired Fronts team on the tail end of a three-in-three weekend.

Re: Clinching conference math
Here's a question I have and I'm no sure if it's been asked yet. Not trying to get a head of myself here but, say we win the East (end season with say 93 pts) and whoever wins the west is a non division leader (looking like London, Erie with say 94 pts) who would get home ice. The team with more points (who I would assume) or the gens who were actually 1st in their conference.

Re: Clinching conference math
Who can catch us?
Other Division Most Points
Sudbury 84pts
Barrie 81pts
Niagara 62pts
North Bay 82pts
Mississauga 62pts
None of them can catch us at our 87pts
The only team that could catch us is Kingston. They can tie us with 87pts. So then we go to Tie Breaker.
1) Most Wins. Kingston and Oshawa would tie at 41 (because in order to tie they must win 7 and we must lose all our games)
2) Head to Head. Generals win this tie breaker regardless of Friday nights game.
Also if we won the division using the above tie breaker then we clearly win the conference.

East division winner not East Champs
Congrats to our GENS - IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE - 1 ST time since our last Memorial Cup win and we did that on GREAT GOALTENDING
and 2 over agers with over 100 points Ian Fraser and Brent Grieve - yes Lindros was there too
Help me with this ??? - While I agree we are conference winners BUT is it not the team that wins the first 3 rounds of the playoffs
the Eastern Conference Champions who then play the western conference champs to be called the O H L champions
We have won the right to be the first season Eastern team with the most points in the regular season
We have won the Eat division title - not yet East division champs - that has yet t be fought for
Now we have 5 regular season games to play - then 16 wins to be O H L CHAMPS
Easier said than done - BUT 1 team will represent the East and why not the # 1 GENS
