Who wins the league?

[Snippit]

This has to be the most wide open season in a long time.

Curious to see who the favourite is. 8 teams that have a reasonable shot at winning.

I honestly think that if Guelph can stay healthy, they have a legitimate shot at the Cup.

OHL Final will be Saginaw vs Ottawa.

[Ottawa wins in 6]

 

[TF519]

Niagara vs. Soo.

[Ottawa wins in 6]

I'll take the same final but Ottawa in 5.

 

[sbpointer]

I wish I could vote for the Knights but I am uneasy about the direction they are going an issue that seems to stem from the leadership group.

Prediction is Guelph v Ottawa
Guelph in 7 in OT

Niagara just doesn't excite me from the East. I would choose Ottawa, Sudbury and Oshawa to come out of the east over Niagara.

This year, there are no terrible answers to this question. 6 or 7 teams could do it. Much will depend on goaltending and injuries. If everyone plays as they can Ottawa is probably the favorite. So many interesting scenarios on most of the top 4 teams in both east and west.

 

[Tarantula]

Sorry Ottawa, I picked you guys so blame me if it doesn't work out.

Wide open this year, I will have more interest in the playoffs this year even after my team is out.

 

[EON]

Playoffs are much more exciting than in years past. The top 4 in both conferences both have shots at winning it, some better than others obviously. Ottawa looks like the favorite to me but competition will be stiff from the conference semifinals onward.

Saginaw over Niagara in 6. This way living in Grimsby the games are free to watch on channel 14. If they lose Niagara is my #2 team. Edit- The games are free to watch on channel 14 during regular season.

My opinion is SSM and Oshawa are not in the mix of the top contenders.

Ottawa is the favourite in the East. They’ve been relatively consistent all year. They’ve done it in spite of their special teams. Both Niagara and Sudbury can challenge for sure. Sudbury is the wild card with UPL.

Saginaw may be the favourite in the West considering their record post deadline. They’ve surprised me. Guelph I thought would have been better. London is missing something.

So, I will go with Saginaw and Ottawa with Ottawa winning.

Agree with all of the above. If you have to pick a team, depth and goaltending in Ottawa are good enough to make them a favorite but would not surprise if they did not make the finals even. Really interesting playoffs this year. Still feel 67 should have done a little more at the deadline, but they are the favorite. If they do not win, there will be room to question the lack of moves. If they win, they are set up for next year as well.

What the highest scoring team does not excite you.

 

[HockeyPops]

top team in the West only garners 1 vote so far. Wow.

 

[Otto]

top team in the West only garners 1 vote so far. Wow.

Top team in the west may not be the top team in the west come tomorrow night

OHL Final will be Saginaw vs Ottawa.

[Ottawa wins in 6]

Im not sure Ottawa would beat Saginaw.

 

[Lycanthrope]

I'll take the same final but Ottawa in 5.

I’d put money on that man. No way. Wondering how many have actually watched the Spirit more than once or twice. No way the Soo should have won that game last night. Spirit have good deep forwards, a good D core and an outstanding goalie. They may not win it all but no team disposes of them in only five games.

Niagara is as good a pick for the East as any. They have a ton of skill and Dhillon at times is underrated. If they can be gritty when needed, they’ll be right in there. They showed they can step up and play a good intense game against the Wolves the last time.

 

[Purple Phart]

I'm picking Ottawa, provided they can get past Sudbury. The Wolves have the goalie that can derail championship asperations.

Maybe but I think Ottawa has peaked

 

[WaW]

I voted Sudbury for fun but in reality I'm thinking it'll be Ottawa over Saginaw in 7.

 

[WolvesFanSudbury]

Sudbury over the soo in 7. That’s the dream. Now for real . Saginaw over Ottawa in 6
