The Race to 100

January 27th, 2007

The race for 100 is well and truely on.  Jason Ruff is out front but Curtis Huppe is not far behind and has hit a real patch of form in front of goal in recent games.  It’s taken seven years but likely by the end of this season one if not two guys will have hit the 100 goal plateau as a Giants player.  I dont even want to think about the reasons why it mightn’t happen, it’s got to!!

Jason Ruff at time of writing sits on 91 goals as a Giants player.  Curtis Huppe sits on 83.  It might be a little tight for Curtis to make it but baring in mide this is over all competitions goals in the playoffs count towards this total.  With 19 league games left and a two legged playoff game all but assured that gives them 21 games to get the job done or potentially 23 should they make the playoff final.

For Ruff it’s to be 9 in 21 - Very likely; For Huppe it’s to be 17 in 21 - Possible.

I’ll be following this one with much interest!
