| THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PRESENTS THE SHL THREE WEEK REPORT (Oct 4-Oct 22) |
| Nut Town Natives Original AP Rank: 12th SHL Standings: 9th Expected To Finish: 11th |
| The Natives goaltending has simply been unbeatable Nikolai Khabibulin suprisingly has carried the bulk of the load.Travis Nutting however is going to have to acquire some offensive help for Jason Spezza and Simon Gagne if the Natives aren't gonna spend time in the cellar. |
| Olchowyville Leafs Original AP Rank: 11th SHL Standings: 4th Expected To Finish: 7th |
| The Leafs goaltending has stood it's ground and will continue to do so. The strong start has been due to there players unfortunately over producing, don't expect this to continue and look for the Leafs barely to miss the playoffs. |
| Gregville Assassines Original AP Rank: 10th SHL Standings: 6th Expected To Finish: 8th |
| Mikka Kiprusoff is leading the solid goaltening core which is the heart and soul of this team. Besides Markus Naslund it is unfortunate the offence can not help the Assassines spectacular goaltending. |
| Marktown Petes Original AP Rank: 9th SHL Standings: 10th Expected To Finish: 6th |
| The Petes slowstart was due to facing strong teams but after a 3-1 win over Trach City the Petes will start to show their promise. Rookie GM Mark Peterson has been snapping up some key free agents to help his squad to most likely make the playoffs. |
| Brantown Slammerrs Original AP Rank: 8th SHL Standings: 7th Expected To Finish: 9th |
| Everybody has it in for the Brantown Slammers being the returning Copenhagen Cup Champions and with the lackluster squad Brandon Allen has produced look for the Slam' to miss the playoffs. |
| Trach City Americans Original AP Rank: 7th SHL Standings: 12th Expected To Finish: 12th |
| The Americans have four offensive studs Heatley, Lecavalier, Iginla and Havlat. The Americans defence is simply below average and with the ankle injury to Martin Havlat it starts a downward incline to another lackluster season in Trach City. |
| Fort Macfie Gangbang Original AP Rank: 6th SHL Standings: 5th Expected To Finish: 4th |
| The Gangbang continue to show promise after getting hammered in there first ever SHL game at the hands of the first place Twisters. The Gangbang have some of the most underrated point-getters in the legue and will continue to suprise as the season progresses. |
| Adamville Falcons Original AP Rank: 5th SHL Standings: 11th Expected To Finish: 10th |
| The Falcons have done nothing but dissapoint against poor teams. First Round Draft Choice Daniel Alfreddson is having a poor start. The brightest point of the season has been a 3-3 tie with Nut Town |
| Gilmore Gold Jackets Original AP Rank: 4th SHL Standings: 3rd Expected To Finish: 3rd |
| The Gold Jackets scouting staff have done their job from day one. Maxim Afinogenov has been a pleasant suprise for GM Hans Johansen. If Staal and Elias continue to produce look for the Jackets to have a chance to win the Copey Cup in their inaugaral season. |
| Scott City Grrrowl Original AP Rank: 3rd SHL Standings: 2nd Expected To Finish: 1st |
| The Grrrowl had a solid team from draft day. There only question mark was goaltending after acquiring Andrew Raycroft and Pascal Leclaire the Grrrowl look like the team to beat now. They lost to Trach City in week one but that was without Leclaire and Raycroft. Look for the Grrrowl to battle with the Twists' all season long for first place. |
| Rumpyvill Roughhosers Original AP Rank: 2nd SHL Standings: 8th Expected To Finish: 5th |
| The Roughhosers last two losses have been like the Petes a result of facing strong teams. If GM Trent Rumpel can keep showing up to the office and putting in some hard work the Roughhosers might have a chance at the Copenhagen Cup |
| Dionland Twisters Original AP Rank: 1st SHL Standings: 1st Expected To Finish: 2nd |
| The Twisters continue their reign at the top spot in the SHL Regular Season standings but with an early easy schedule it might be a little ill-advised to how the season will turn out although still having a strong squad look for the Twisters to be a real contender for the Championship trophy. |
