No David Musil would be a pretty good one.

Our rock-solid, top defenseman? No way...

Vancouver is deep though. Gallagher, Martinook, Franson, and my favorite Giant Tvrdon.

Not enough secondary scoring and a very average defense without Musil. I think they'll be Spokane but either way, whichever team wins that series will be knocked out in the second round.

I'll say 4-2 Brandon, Stone with 2 points.

Just a FYI I Will be posting vBookie odds for all the CHL playoff match up this year. Hopefully I'll have this game up sometime later tonight.

Alright, i'm ready to go.

Prediction Game #1 - Calgary vs Brandon. Calgary 4 to 1. Calgary wins by committee once again with 4 different scorers.

[The Head Crusher]

Odds are now up for the Hitmen Weatkings game

[Renegade Stylings]

Expecting a good game tonight in Cgy. Wouldn't be shocked to see Brandon steal a game there out of the first two.

[S E P H]

IMO Wheat Kings seem to have the better team imo.

[The Head Crusher]

Brandon wins game one

[WheatiesHockey]

Happy that the Wheaties won.
Would not want to be in the Hitmen dressing room after this one when the coach and GM show up.

[luongoisdaman]

Can't wait for Game 1 tomorrow. Pacific Coliseum's gonna be rocking with Towel Power.

I think your game is broken.

Going to Game 1 in Vancouver tonight. Picking Vancouer in 7, and promptly eliminated in 4 of 5 in Round 2.

[Renegade Stylings]

Well, as I expected, Brandon won a game in Calgary.

I expect Glover in goal for the Hitmen going forward.
