First Place Peoria Rivermen

I think it is to reward the teams who play in a tougher division and have more overall points. Its kinda like how the NHL playoffs are, with an 8 team conference line up. They have divisions too, but its based on overall points not divisional allignment. So I think it would just be easier if they said the top 8 teams from each conference make the playoffs or whatever it is. I could be wrong on this whole thing, but I remember reading it somewhere.

Also, thought I would post this here as I got a message on my facebook page:

Well, the Rivs got waxed in 2 games vs. Oklahoma City, 7-2 and 4-1.

Pretty embarrassing performance on home ice heading into the all star break.
