Red Deer looks like they will roll pretty easily too.

The Rebels were very lucky to win the game last night. Edmonton really dominated the play the last 40 minutes. One real bad giveaway by the Oil Kings gave RD the lead and then RNH added a ppg just a minute later. I still think Red Deer sweeps the series but the games might be closer than expected.

According to CKNW, the Chilliwack Bruins sale to Victoria interests has been confirmed.

That's a shame.

Meanwhile, Edmonton is now 0-8 all-time in playoff games. They gave Red Deer a fight, but were clearly out matched. Kind of surprised the Giants got swept though. Just seems wrong to have Vancouver and Calgary completely out of it so early.

Regina's Myles Bell was seriously injured in a car accident in town here last night that also killed a passenger in his car:

Cochrane RCMP suspect that Bell was driving drunk when the accident happened.

Kid just went from being potentially a first round pick to completely ruining his life, and ending another, just like that.

Jake Virtanen 1st overall pick for the Calgary Hitmen. Don't know much about this guy, how good is he?
