Saskatoon Blades @ Winnipeg Ice
Series tied 0-0
7:00 p.m. ET
Watch on: WHL streaming platform
The Blades (with Brandon Lisowsky and Josh Pillar) are in the Eastern Conference Finals of the WHL Playoffs. These two teams finished first (WPG) and third (SAS) in the Conference and first and fourth in the League. I've linked to some previews below, but obviously go read Brigstew's prospect report, it is much more targeted towards our prospects.

Sarnia Sting @ London Knights
Series tied 0-0
7:00 p.m. ET
Watch on: OHL streaming platform
Ty Voit is in the Western Conference Finals of the OHL Playoffs. These two teams finished second (LDN) and third (SAR), but Windsor got knocked out in the first round by the Kitchener Rangers (woot!) so it's anyone's game between these two. North Bay and Peterborough is the other series.
