Sixteen games are all that remains in the Cleveland Monsters’ season. They essentially have a playoff run’s worth of games left to try and jump at least two teams in the North Division to claim the fifth and final playoff spot.
A few weeks ago, the Monsters moved into playoff position and almost immediately tripped over themselves with 4 straight losses (0-3-1), sending them back into the basement. Thankfully the losses did not come against any of the teams in direct competition for one of the remaining playoff spots, and did not set them back too much.
The Monsters have stopped taking on water, and have steadied the ship after that rough patch.
