After four (4) consecutive wins, they were defeated at home by the Boston Bruins 3-5. A difficult and demanding match, as the opponent is a good team. They stood up well but lost on the details. They are not doing badly, but they could do better, as what is not working well is their defense. They have already conceded 61 goals, which they need to improve immediately if they are to have any hope of 3η position and above. White absence card.

The year started with the worst omens counting eight (8) consecutive defeats. Afterwards, however, they won eight (8) in a row! Really impressive. Both (2) streaks from this team. They are not for such long negative streaks as they have good stuff, but neither are they for such long positive streaks as they also have some striking weaknesses such as their defensive consistency. They are now coming off a 6-2 road loss to the Buffalo Sabers. In a game they rightfully lost. Fair from a team with offensive qualities but also defensive weaknesses. Away from home they concede 3.3 goals per match. White absence card.
I think "Atrapes" is a better team. If I had to pick the team that won't do 2η losing streak would be the home team clearly due to roster quality. Ace.
