As always, Alberta and UN are prohibitive favourites.
There is ZERO chance that Lethbridge upsets UNB. It's like an SPHL team facing an AHL team. Shots will likely be 50-10 for UNB.
If Carleton is OUA #3, they have a legitimate shot at upsetting Alberta. Not saying they will, but they have the talent to do so. Carleton outplayed Queen's, and should have won the OUA East. The issue with Carleton has always been their team discipline. They are big and talented, but can be outworked. Consider that they lost TWICE to RMC this year.
Queen's should beat St FX. I see St FX as a team that rode the emotion of their conflict with Acadia to series wins, but their tank was emptied when they met UNB. Perhaps they can get it back, but Queen's is a talented team with good goaltending, and a core of Senior leadership that has been to the UCup before. They beat Ottawa AND Carleton in 4 straight, and should be confident.
Guelph will likely get pasted by Sask.
