You fuck with the Hitmen, you get whacked.

Well with Windsor trying to repeat this year they will be tough to beat but as an avid watcher of the OHL they are more beatable then they were last year. Last years Spitfire team was much more of a juggernaut then they are this year.

Well, I'll say Calgary dominated the finals, but I'm not sure how great their competition, Tri-Cities, really was. But Tri-Cities did beat a slick-skating Vancouver Giants team that looked pretty good to me the games I saw. I would bet Calgary if I could find a taker.

Oh, and the Hitmen also beat the Wheat Kings 4-1 in the semi-finals. So advantage Calgary in that game.

TC doesns't really have any big name players, just a solid roster with good coaching. I think this year might be the year the host wins. Brandon is a great team and this isn't a 7 game series. Calgary and Brandon match up well. This years tournament should be great.

Eh

I'm gonna go with Windsor just because I wanna see BZK raise the Memorial Cup. Thinking with my heart over here.

Spits win 6-2 and earn their bye into the Memorial Cup game.

Kassian had a motherfucking beast of a shift that led to the goal he assisted on. It was a beauty.

2-1 Windsor against Moncton right now, seems to me the Quebec league is not really that great in this tournament

Eric "I Ain't My Fatass Brother Kyle" Wellwood scored the OT winner for the Spits, winning the game 4-3 and eliminating Moncton from the tournament.

Windsor was pretty fucking lucky to win last night, now they get an extremely long layoff until Sunday. Anyways Brandon and Calgary wrap up the round robin tonight and they both play the semis on Friday

If Windsor can keep the rust off, they'll win this thing for a repeat - with Brandon and Calgary playing tonight and then the semis, whichever team advances will be beat up and tired.

True but we did see Windsor come back with Kelowna had the same amount of time off that the Spits have right now.

To be fair, Kelowna was sleep-walking through both of their games against the Spits. No amount of Myers, Benn, and Backlund was going to rescue them those games.
