Upcoming Series
-----------------
Chicago plays one game in New York, then takes a day off before starting a brief 3-day homestand against Cincinnati.
Mexico City plays a huge 3 games in 2 days vs. the Royal Canadians, then wraps up a 9-game homestand with 4 against lowly Sydney.
After playing 3 against Mexico, Canada travels to China to take on Sydney for 3.
Paris goes to England to play 2 - perhaps London's last chance at gaining enough ground on the leader to take the shield - before coming back to the City of Lights for 3 games vs. Vienna.
London, as mentioned, tackles Paris before wrapping up their season series vs. Moscow with 3 games behind the Iron Curtain.
Berlin plays a couple teams with dashed hopes - 2 games in Rome, then 3 at home against Amsterdam.
Brussels does the reverse of Berlin: 2 at home against Amsterdam followed by 3 in Rome. It marks the last time Amsterdam plays either club this season.
