CCRHL Spring standings, week 3: D-League is wide open.

After three weeks, only one team has separated. Everyone else is within a game.

Three weeks into the spring season and the standings tell a familiar story: A-League is locked in, B is a coin flip every night, and D-League is the most fun anyone is having on the ice.

A-League: Penalty Box Heroes already pulling away

Penalty Box is 3-0 with a +14 goal differential, and that's with starting goalie Mike Lindquist out one game. Word is they've added two former DI-club players who decided beer league is more fun than they remembered. The rest of the division is going to need a plan.

D-League: nobody can win two in a row

Of the 8 D teams, 6 have a 1-1-1 or 2-1 record. Half the games have been decided by a single goal. This is the rare division where the standings actually mean what you think they mean: everyone's a beer leaguer who learned to skate at 32 and is having a great time.
