With a loss tonight, the Bulldogs (31-34-1-6) will be eliminated from playoff contention (mathematically, that is; realistically they've been dead for a month).

If the Bulldogs (31-33-1-5) can pull off their second straight upset in as many nights against the Griffins (44-21-2-4), they'll be able to move their postseason odds to higher than a tenth of a percent.

Tonight is the second game of Hamilton's 3-game homestand (before a 9-game road trip) and the Bulldogs (27-30-1-4) will look to keep their slim playoff hopes alive against the Admirals (29-20-6-6). With there being some injuries in Nashville, Milwaukee has lost a couple of their better players to recall. On a side note, Scott Darling, who was in Hamilton's system last year (and played a game), is having a fantastic season as Milwaukee's backup. I didn't see that coming.
