Week 2’s action buttressed our feelings on the season. It’s still ridiculously early to draw conclusions, but only two games so far have thrown us for a loop: The November 30 St. Louis Ambush win over the Orlando SeaWolves and the Dallas Sidekicks win in Hidalgo on December 1.

A few games this week will be good gauges of where teams stand.

The Kansas City Comets will play three games in four days against the Mississauga MetroStars, Milwaukee Wave, and St. Louis Ambush, after which they will be somewhere between 0-4 and 3-1.

After two weeks off Orlando will have their hands full with the Baltimore Blast on Friday.

Dallas will have their first meeting of the season against the El Paso Coyotes on Saturday.

The Tacoma Stars and Ontario Fury have been joined at the hip the last few years and now they will meet head-to-head on Saturday as they jockey for position.

1-1

LW: 12 The MetroStars did major damage to the Tropics visa stand-ins, 10-0, but the regrettable situation didn’t even earn Adrian Becic’s shutout a Team of the Week nod from the MASL, who probably prefer that this game never happened. If nothing else, the game was a coming out party for Mo Babouli.

1-1

LW: 15 Harrisburg recovered from a blown three-goal lead to edge the Ambush in exciting fashion, but also cemented their position in the bottom third of the MASL, with an impossible six-game road trip and seven out of eight games against Baltimore and Utica looming.
