The Kelowna Rockets really lucked out finishing 2 points behind Brandon and not getting home ice "advantage" for this final series.
The 2-3-2 format already favours the road team. Now the Rockets win the first game to guarantee a split and are clearly in the drivers seat even if they don't win tomorrow.
Going to be a good series though. Clearly the best two teams in the league. It's been a fun season and whoever wins will be a worthy representative of the WHL in the Memorial Cup.
