Key Weekend Matchups

Atlantic Division

Mercer Chiefs at Rockets Hockey Club

This is the strongest Atlantic matchup of the weekend. The Rockets are 1st with 32 points. Mercer sits 4th with 28 points and could close the gap to two points with a win.

Mountain Division

Idaho Falls Spud Kings at Utah Outliers

Idaho Falls (25 points) is chasing Grand Junction and Ogden for position, while Utah is fighting to climb out of the bottom two. Idaho Falls needs these points to keep pace with the top of the division. Utah needs the win to stay within striking distance of Pueblo for 4th place.
Classic Mountain rivalry game with pressure for both sides.

New England East Division

Universal Academy at Universel Quebec – Nov. 28 & 29

The only East Division matchup on the slate—and an important one: Quebec (22 pts) is in the playoff mix. Academy (12 pts) is trying to close the gap from last place. A back-to-back that could dramatically change the bottom half of the standings.

New England North Division

St. Stephen County Moose at Northern Maine Pioneers – Nov. 30, 7:00 PM AST

A huge matchup for positioning in the lower half of the division. Pioneers (17 pts) hold a slim edge for 4th. Moose (13 pts) are trying to climb out of last place. A swing game that could change the entire North Division playoff picture.
