Just home from it... what a game, the atmosphere was as good as when they won the WHL title at home a few years ago and the game almost felt scripted it was so dramatic. T-birds scored with 7 seconds left to tie it and send it to overtime, then Tyson Baillie completes the hattrick on a beauty pass from Madison Bowey (who I'm starting to hope the Flames look at with pick #30) to win it.
They had 4 defensemen left - 7 starters out with injury, played a forward back there for a couple shifts so they got a breather once in a while and dressed a local 15 year old kid who sat on the bench and I think didn't play a shift as insurance in case someone else got injured. Another 15 year old, Merkley's younger brother, dressed as well. He did play and actually looked real dangerous on his couple shifts.
Anyway Kamloops is probably going to pulverize them with 7 starters out and 5 kids who are 15 or 16 years old in the lineup but after that comeback the season was a success in my mind
