There was some slight jockeying for position in June but very little changed overall. The Quebeck Sky Chiefs saw their division lead cut to three games while the Cornfield Axemen had their lead cut from eleven games to seven games. Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Knights are now firmly in control with a 16 game division lead.

The Brooklyn Knights had a couple of additional key player injuries in June. Hooks Goetz and Michael Duhon both experienced back injuries. Goetz missed a little over two weeks while Duhon’s injury is expected to keep him out of the lineup for a total of five weeks.
