NEMS actually has an easy schedule given they are in the top A division. They can certainly beat Monster and Jesters, but no way vs Hero's Green and YJA.
Great jobs by NEMS sacking up and playing the best in the country. Even if they go 1-3 or 2-2, it will be a better experience for them than Pride or MDU who will likely 4-0 in pool play and play each other in the quarters.
I go back and forth on this. NGLL is a tough sledding all spring, and most of these tournaments you get M&D or Hero's, I think its good to play some teams ranked 10-30 once in awhile and build some positive vibes. Going 1-3, even against the big dawgs isn't going to make any parents or players feel good.
