We’re down to two active prospects in North America, as Filip Kral and JD Greenway both bowed out of their respective playoff races. Ian Scott and the Prince Albert Raiders continue to dominate the WHL post-season, and Fedor Gordeev and the Guelph Storm made another come from behind series win.

**Ontario Hockey League**  
**#29 - Fedor Gordeev (D)**   
Guelph Storm

Win Western Conference Finals vs Saginaw Spirit 4-3  
[**Game 1**](http://ontariohockeyleague.com/gamecentre/24034/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 7-2** \- 0G, 0A, -1

After coning back from a 3-0 hole in round two, the Storm made it to the OHL Championship Series with a 3-1 comeback over the Saginaw Spirit. It helps that the Spirit’s starting goalie was [suspended for five games](https://www.guelphtoday.com/local-sports/ohl-hands-out-suspensions-to-pair-of-saginaw-spirit-players-1386167?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), forcing them to play their rookie back up for the remainder of the series.

Guelph *stormed* back and won hour of those five games, which proves pestering a goalie until they toss the puck in the air and baseball bat it to the other end of the ice **is** a good strategy. Who knew?

Now the Storm face the Ottawa 67’s for the J. Ross Robertson Cup and the chance to represent the OHL at the Memorial Cup in Halifax. The 67’s have been the most dominant team in the OHL, and when they had run away with first place, went out and traded for one of the best goalies in the league with Mikey DiPietro. DiPietro hasn’t been himself in the playoffs, allowing some close games against the Hamilton Bulldogs and Sudbury Wolves on the way to the finals.

### Western Hockey League

**#18 - Filip Kral (D)**  
Spokane Chiefs

Lost Western Conference Final to the Vancouver Giants 4-1  
[**Game 1**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016426/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 4-1 -** 0G, 0A, +1  
[**Game 2**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016427/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 4-2** \- 0G, 0A, -1  
[**Game 3**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016428/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Win - 3-2 OT** \- 0G, 0A, +1  
[**Game 4** ](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016429/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)**\- Loss - 4-3 OT** \- Did Not Play: Injury  
[**Game 5**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016430/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 3-2 -** Did Not Play: Injury

Kral missed the final two games after a hit he took in the first period of game three. The Chiefs missed him on defense, and after two close games, Vancouver won and moved on to the WHL Final.   

**#33 - Ian Scott (G)**  
Prince Albert Raiders

Win Eastern Conference Finals vs Edmonton Oil Kings 4-2  
[**Game 1** ](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016433/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)**\- Win - 1-0** \- 26sh, 26sv, 1.000sv%  
[**Game 2**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016434/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 4-3 OT** \- 30sv, 34sh, .882sv%  
[**Game 3**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016435/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Loss - 5-1** \- 34sv, 39sh, .872sv%  
[**Game 4**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016436/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Win 2-1** \- 25sv, 26sh, .962sv%  
[**Game 5**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016437/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Win - 4-0** \- 24sv, 24sh, 1.000sv%  
[**Game 6**](http://whl.ca/gamecentre/1016438/boxscore?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) **\- Win - 4-2** \- 32sv, 34sh, .941sv%

The Raiders have made it to their first WHL Final since they won the WHL title and Memorial Cup in 1985\. Scott helped lead the way for Prince Albert by posting a .924sv% with two shutouts.

Their opponent in the WHL final is the Vancouver Giants, who won the BC Division and Western Conference in the regular season, and eliminated our boy Filip Kral up there in the Western Conference Final. If Scott plays to his standard for this season the Giants will be in trouble, as they only scored 228 goals over the regular season. Not a huge offensive threat combined with a top of the league goaltender and stingy defense is a recipe for a quick series. Fingers crossed we’ll see the Raiders in Halifax.

WHL Final schedule - vs Vancouver Giants

Game 1 - Home - Fri. May 3  
Game 2 - Home - Sat. May 4  
Game 3 - Away - Tues. May 7

## USHL

**#14 - JD Greenway (D)**   
Dubuque Fighting Saints

Eliminated in round two vs Muskegon Lumberjacks 3-1

[**Game 1**](https://www.ushl.com/view?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#/game-summary/8670) **\- Loss - 4-0** \- 0G, 0A, -2  
[**Game 2**](https://www.ushl.com/view?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#/game-summary/8671) **\- Loss - 5-1** \- 0G, 0A, -2  
[**Game 3** ](https://www.ushl.com/view?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#/game-summary/8672)**\- Win - 5-1** \- 3G, 1A  
[**Game 4**](https://www.ushl.com/view?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com#/game-summary/8673) **\- Loss - 2-1** \- Did Not Play: Suspended

The Fighting Saints were eliminated in four games by the Lumberjacks in their best of five round two series. Greenway was off the score sheet until game three when he had four points, but was also ejected for abuse of officials. Dubuque would lose their final game while Greenway sat.

I guess if the Leafs trade Kadri, they’ll have a replacement.
