[Red John]

Go Rockets.

Hunter Smith manhandling Draisaitl. All I want.

[N-E-B]

Go Generals! Usually pull for the WHL champs but Flames prospects trump that.

[Northendzone]

I have to cheer for the western team - go rockets

[getbak]

Smith has good speed for a big guy.

I've thought the Kelowna goalie has so far looked pretty decent in this tournament. Undrafted too so could be a camp invite. Knock on wood so I don't hex him.

Plus, Jackson Whistle is just a great hockey player name.

Smith had a really nice shift there. Kept his feet moving, always in the right place, had his stick in passing lanes. He tracked the play really well.

Hunter Smith is a massive dude. Huge size / strength advantage for him against most opponents I'd imagine.

[btimbit]

Usually cheer for the WHL Champs, but dont like Kelowna and want the Oilers prospect to fail.

Turning the game on late so go Generals

[Blarg]

Anybody have issues with snw right now? My feed is ko'd

[dammage79]

Ken Appleby is on fire right now. Kipper esque saves keeping the Generals in it.

[calumniate]

Me too, with Telus.

[Blarg]

Dammit telus

[Trailer Fire]

Kelowna is playing really well. I won't be sad if either team wins.

[H2SO4(aq)]

Merkley really competes. wouldn't mind him in Flames silks.

Who potted the Generals goal? Was Smith involved?
