The Rebels need to finish 4th or 5th if they want to see even a sixth playoff game this year. Barring divine intervention, I don't see the 6-8 teams in the East lasting very long at all.
That said, if Calgary can finish 1st somehow, and Red Deer 4th/5th, I wouldn't say no to a Hitmen-Rebels second round!
Meanwhile, former Hitman and Ice player Jason MacDonald did his part to screw the Calgary Canucks over, taking a slashing major that his own coach called stupid to the press, during which Calgary gave up 3 powerplay goals. Didn't expect anything from the Royals, but the Canucks should not be down 2-0 against Brooks.
