Broncos defeated the Tigers 5-4 last night and thus the Tigers lead in the series has been trimmed to 2-1. There was a skirmish at the end of the game and McKenna was assessed a game misconduct which may or may not bring a 1 game suspension. Waiting for clarification.

Seattle is up 2-1 on Everett which is a bit of a surprise. The Tips were up 3-1 before Seattle came storming back with five unanswered goals.

I saw this yesterday, but thought it was an April fools post.
Suspended for a period?

Tigers have scored 18 goals in this series and McKenna has points on 14 of them - More importantly, the Tigers won 4-3 in OT tonight and have a 3-1 series lead on Speedy Creek with the series returning to Medicine Hat.

I think Cristall was pissed about his suspension, had a hat trick tonight and was absolutely flying all over the ice. 6-2 Chiefs win gives them a 3-1 series lead over Vancouver.

Everett is beat up and missing some key players, Seattle might take them out in round 1. If that happens, Spokane is the team to beat in the Western Conference.

Tigers to round 2 of the playoffs for the first time since 2017 as they take out the Broncos 3-2 tonight and win the series 4 games to 1.

Spokane advances to round 2 as they win 9-4 tonight over the Giants and takes the series 4 games to 1 - I'll let the following image tell the story.

Top line definitely did the heavy lifting tonight

PA has forced a 7th and deciding game in their series versus Edmonton. The winner of game 7 gets the Tigers in round 2.

Everett and Seattle are deep into the first OT period with the score tied 0-0

Edit: We need a 2nd OT session

Everett wins it in the 2nd OT period and knocks out Seattle.

Tonight, the PA Raiders eliminated the Oil Kings with a 5-0 drubbing and PA will face the Tigers in round 2.

Gavin McKenna is one of the six nominees for the WHL player of the year - The other five are the following:

Oliver Tulk - Calgary Hitmen
Max Hildebrand - PA Raiders
Berkly Catton - Spokane Chiefs
Andrew Cristall - Spokane Chiefs
Kyle Chyzowski - Portland Winterhawks

Lethbridge blanked Calgary 4-0 last night at the Saddledome and it was a very sparse crowd of just under 2400 people. Tigers are drawing crowds close to 6000 most nights (1.5 million population as compared to 70K)

That's a shockingly low number for a team that's a legit WHL title contender.

A little better crowd tonight (just over 3800) but the Hurricanes have a 2-0 lead in the series as they take game 2 by a 2-1 score.
