      - ok, so if Chicago beats Detroit in regulation, they are tied in points and in ROW. Then what? Head to head? -- nm - TFox Apr 6, 07:50 4
        
        next tiebreaker is goal differential, which detroit would take. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 07:53
        
        Found it. In case anyone other than me is curious: - TFox Apr 6, 07:53 2
        
        oh, right. goal differential comes after head-to-head. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 07:53 1
        
        and Chicago would own this tiebreak 8-2. -- nm - TFox Apr 6, 07:54
