McGill beat Concordia 6-2 in the OUA East deciding game, then beat Brock 5-1 in the Queen's Cup. McGill is clearly the best team in the OUA, and will be ready. Kelly Nobes has taken Laurier and McGill to the University Cup multiple times, including a Championship in 2011. McGill is deep, plays very structured, and will be ready for tonight's game.
As for Brock and Concordia ...
The OUA West has gotten terribly weak. I wish I knew the reason why, but Western is a shadow of its former self, and nobody has stepped in to fill the void. There are probably just too many teams recruiting from a limited OHL talent pool. Brock will not be back to the UCup for a long time. They were a .500 team in a weak division ... they have a veteran team and rode a hot goalie to get 0ut of the OUA West.
Concordia is talented, but renowned for their sloppy defence and weak structure, which was badly exposed by UNB. Then again, UNB pounded St FX by a combined score of 11-3 in the AUS Championship ... so it seems clear that UNB is at another level. I wouldn't read too much into the score differential other than UNB being a dominant program.
McGill is deep, talented, and well-coached. It will be a great game tonight.
