GMHL Wrap Up - Week 8

Week in Review - Week 8:

The South reigned supreme in two heavy-weight battles of top-end teams from their respective divisions. The North's Temiscaming Titans and South's Toronto Attack did battle with the Attack winning a close 2-1 game. The second heavy-weight bout featured the Bradford Rattlers facing off against the Seguin Huskies. The Rattlers came through with a victory in a close 3-2 game, giving weight to the argument that the South may be a stronger division.

The Bracebridge Blues had a rough week, dropping two games this week to South Muskoka and Halton. The Grey Highlands Bravehearts have won two in a row this week and look to have turned things around. Sturgeon Falls also had a strong week taking their last two.

The Halton Ravens had a four game win streak snapped by the Tottenham Steam this weekend. The Orangeville Americans have gone through some struggles lately and will look to bounce back next week.

The match of the week goes to the eleventh place North York Renegades defeating the favored  third place Toronto Attack 3-2. It was North York's second win on the season and the Attacks third loss.
