Ah playoffs.

A time of upsets, a time of rivalries renewed, a time of coaches speaking their mind.

In case you didn’t want to/couldn’t watch, to summarize the Windsor Spitfires coach says they invented diving in London, and that’s why they had five power plays to Windsor’s one. These two teams have hated each other for a long time and it really shows in the playoffs.

When the arena staff and the visiting staff are arguing it’s going to be a good series.

Everyone is two games into their series, and only Korostelev (Peterborough) and Brooks (Regina) are leading their series. Everyone else is tied 1-1, aside from Desrocher (Kingston) who’s down 2-0\. Some outstanding weekends from Adam Brooks (5 points) and Jack Walker (4 points).

Dominic Toninato is our lone surviving NCAA player, and UMD has made it all the way to the Frozen Four in Chicago. Two more games against the best of the NCAA and we’ll have our first champion crown. They have the week off, and pick up the finals April 6th & 8th.
