HOW THE EAST WILL BE WON
For the curious, I thought the group would like to know what Bridgeport and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton have the rest of the way as the Bears look to hold off the Pens and pass the Tigers.

Bridgeport:

Tuesday-Worcester
Saturday-at Hershey
Sunday-at Lowell (wow, that's a hike!)
March 31-at Albany
April 3-Hershey
April 5-Albany
April 10-Springfield
April 11-Lowell

Opinion: Not a real tough sked the rest of the way, save the games against the Bears. The River Rats and Sharks might be Hershey's best hope.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton

Wednesday: Grand Rapids
Saturday: Toronto
Sunday: at Hershey
April 1: at Binghamton
April 4: Hershey
April 8: Norfolk
April 10: Albany
April 11: Norfolk
April 12: at Hershey

Opinion: Tougher games for the Pens than the Tigers, but four of the last five are at home. Given the current games in hand, Hershey just needs to take care of business head to head with the flightless birds, and the WB would likely finish third in the division. Lose the games head to head, and things could go south quickly for the boys from Chocolatetown.

With the Pens and Tigers both in town again this weekend, the time is now for the Bears to grab the division lead. A big week this week, and the number one seed will nearly be in reach I believe.
