Hahaha. Was thinking more of his Junior career path. He won't get stuck in Edmonton. I'd welcome him to Seattle though.

I guess Skinner was drafted by his hometown team, Edmonton. Harry wasn't drafted by Edmonton, or his hometown team, Vancouver. Harry is much luckier even if he doesn't win the WHL Championship.

Jets have called up Brayden Yager from the Lethbridge Hurricanes. If their injuries keep piling up maybe he'll play game 7.

Games 1 and 2 of the WHL Championship series are essentially sell-outs, great to see...

Will Bryant tweeting that both Basha and Lindstrom are full participants in Tigers practice this morning. Very good sign that they could be back to start the finals.

Tough to sit anyone out of a line up that is 22-1-0 in the last 23 games and 12-1 in the playoffs, but Bash and Lindy are beasts. Gotta dress them if they are ready IMO

I can't see this being a very long series. The Tigers are just too deep.

IMO they'd would rotate out the 16 year olds starting with Markus, then SGC then Liam.

I don't think they would sit any 19 year olds like Neutens or Pacheco as some might suggest.

Hopefully we find out, been waiting all year to see this Tigers team at full strength.

The 16s got a ton of experience that they never would have had the tigers been healthier, they will be better next year because of it. Hopefully (if they have to sit) they have a good attitude about it and understand that the 4th overall and 41st overall from last year's draft need to be in the line up and it's no shame being sat for them.

To Kelowna, the first move to load up for the memorial cup next year. Should be the first of many.

Gav is the first Tigers player to win WHL Player of the Year since 2007 (Kris Russell). The Tigers hoisted the Ed Chynoweth Cup in 2007.

I haven't looked this morning but did the 3 leagues approve another Euro spot for each team?

Yes they did. Much needed with all the players that will choose to go NCAA now.

So when the Pats come out to play, you guys have to go, as Maddox Schultz is the real deal. He is unreal. 14/15 years old and dominated midget AAA. I was lucky to get to watch him for cheap while he played with the Pat C's... Now I gotta spend some more to watch him with the Pats.

He won't be playing the whole season though as he didn't apply for exceptional status, so he only gets something like 35 games w the Pats. The year after though, full time.

If he continues this trajectory, easily a top 3-5 pick in NHL in 4 years.
