This is just the first round. 16 wins for a Kelly Cup. Interesting note, the West 7 seed Stockton swept the West 2nd seed Ontario. Ontario had completed with the overall league second best record, only a win behind taking the regular season championship from the Aces. Ontario had a scheduling conflict that gave the 7 seed the first two home games. Such is minor league hockey.
Aces play Vegas Friday with a chance to face Stockton in the next round up for grabs with a win. Stocktons Captain/tough guy had an elbowing major with a game misconduct in their last win against Ontario. I expect him to see some suspension time added tomorrow. This could, pending an Aces advancement, send Stockton to Alaska without their captain for I would expect the first two games.
