Even though the first two rounds were a bit off, the end result was pretty damn close.

Very classy of Portland to wait and wait for Edmonton to shake hands.

Laurent Brossoit gets the 2012 WHL Playoff MVP. Edmonton's big question coming into this playoff was if their goaltending would stand. Congratulations Laurent!

Congrats. They played a great game, and that was one hell of a series. Still feeling a little bummed, but the Hawks gave me an excellent season.

Best of luck in Shawinigan to the Oil Kings.

Congrats Edmonton!

But that's as far as my support will go. Will never cheer for another WHL team in the Memorial Cup. Let's go Saint John!!
