Believe it or not, there's less than a month to go until the high school hockey playoffs start, so it's getting into crunch time for area teams and players.
This is about the point when league titles are going to be decided, and one will all but be decided on Saturday night when Clarkston plays Lake Orion in a battle for supremacy in the OAA Red.
This should only add even more flavor to this rivalry game, although it won't be as important should the teams meet in the pre-regional or regional round of the state tournament.
College and pro teams often talk about how there are no nights quite like Saturday night to play hockey, and Kosmo is sure Detroit Skate Club in Bloomfield Hills will be packed with fans from both schools when they meet on Saturday at 8 p.m.
What a great way to spend a Saturday night.
- Unless Southfield-Lathrup beats Clarkston at home on Feb. 28, Kosmo doesn't see the Wolves losing a game the rest of the way in the OAA Red. When Clarkston is clicking, it's just too hard of a team to defend.
