Brossoit is going to have to be close to perfect for the Oil Kings to shut down the Winterhawks' offence.
I'm going to pick the Winterhawks in 6. Either way, the series MVP will be a Flames draft pick.

Not sure Brossoit has to be "perfect". The Oil Kings have one of the most stacked D in the league. They'll still have their hands full against Baertschi/Noebels/Rattie though, but if Brossoit lets in the occasional softy, they'll be fine.
I think the Oil Kings are set. They have the better goalie by far, the better D, and a fairly comparable offense. Baertschi and Rattie will take them to the wall in 6-7 games though.
