CHL Playoff Discussion

[PenguinHunter]

Hello all,

The CHL playoffs start tonight in all three leagues.

I figured I would start a thread for discussion on the playoffs.

My top storylines for the 1st round.

1) Swift Current vs Regina... rematch of the 7 game series that was amazing last year! Swift had a 3-1 series lead and Regina battled back and won in game 7!
2) The Topping Battle - Older Brother Jordan (80 points in 72 games) is on the underdog Americans versus draft eligible Kyle (65 points in 66 games) playing for Kelowna. Could be a great first round series.
3) My Wheaties coming in as Wild Card 1 with more points then the Medicine Hat Tigers. Is it considered an upset if the team with more points wins???

My prediction for WHL finals:

Moose Jaw Warriors vs. Everett Silvertips

I'm hoping Brandon beats Medicine Hat, aswell as Regina over Swift!!

Yeah! Wow! Missing Svechnikov? Or is Mississauga better than a 7th place team?

Little bit of both I think. This series goes 7 games I imagine.

I love 7 game series. Hopefully it gets televised!

I don't think he will be as good as Marner but I can see a bit of a comparison there..
