The midpoint of the American Hockey League season has now arrived for the Laval Rocket, and they find themselves on the outside of the playoff picture, but not by a very large margin. Although tied in points with the Utica Comets in points, the Comets have three games in hand for the final playoff spot division.
Overall, Laval’s record of 37 points in 38 games prorates to a 74 point season, which would be among the lowest in the past 10 seasons for the Canadiens AHL farm team, and likely another year without making the playoffs.
