I think you under sell how good the Canada West representatives are. UBC was outplayed by UofA, but UBC kept them to the perimeter, limiting their opportunities from the slot and Toth played well. UofA probably should have won, but UBC earned it and I’m honestly glad to see a different team get an opportunity. They have some really skilled players that I believe can break a game open and Toth showed he’s capable of stealing a game. I think you are right UNB wins, but there is no chance it’s by 7 goals. UofS has a deep team, they roll four lines and they play with a lot of heart. On top of having the best goaltender in U-Sports. Reading some articles after their Canada West win, it seems likely they have a really tight group and I think that goes a long way towards having success, skill isn’t everything. The draw should benefit them coming in. UNB is tough to bet against, and they look like the most talented and well rounded team, but I think Acadia will make it tough on them and for the sake of seeing a new winner this year. I predict UofS and Acadia will play in the final and to me it is a toss up, but I think UofS wins a close one 3-2 and Dave Adolph finally gets to enjoy that elusive U-Cup! You never know though. In a single game elimination format, anything could happen.
