The number of times I've seen a Wheat Kings player tripped, held or hooked has easily been greater this season then in the past due to the dominance of guys like Calvert, Schenn, Rajala, Glennie, Fehr, Raedeke, Lewadniuk etc, They have their way against their opponents much more often then not because they earn penalties, not because of any kind of ref conspiracy.
Calgary/Brandon is going to be awesome. I have no idea right now which way it is going to go but if Marty Jones doesn't get his act together quick, Brandon very easily go home up 2-0 before Calgary even knows what hit them. That said, I fully expect this one to go 7 games.

I think you've dead on with Jones, the games I've seen he hasn't been the difference maker; either because the Hitmen have scored alot in a win or they lost (usually outshooting the opponent)... I think he'll at least have to be equal with his counterpart in net.
Got tickets to game 2, sect 109 row 5 behind the players bench...$18 a pop!
