Wheat Kings, 2016 Playoffs (WHL Champions!!)
3/22/2016 at 10:44 PM
With Edmonton winning tonight's tiebreaker game with Medicine Hat, it's looking like another "battle of the kings" in the first round of the playoffs starting Thursday/Friday in Brandon.
Oil Kings actually won 3 of the 4 head to head games between the teams this year, though the most recent was an 8-3 Brandon win. Wheat Kings won the first round series last year in 5 games... The final 3 of which were 1 goal games.
The teams had very different finishes to the year, with Brandon going 11-0-2 over their last 13 and Edmonton winning 2 of 10 before tonight's tiebreaker win.
Will be interesting to see what kind of series we end up with and if the 2-3-2 format has any impact.
