7th heaven times two

The WHL's first round will have two seventh games this year, as Saskatoon dominated the Hurricanes tonight en route to a 5-1 win. That was much more like the Saskatoon Blades we all expect to see, not the imposters we saw in the game five loss.

As much as Lethbridge's best players were dominant in game five, they were equally ineffective tonight as the Blades gave the Canes very little tonight - and what little opportunity the Canes did get, Braden Holtby was on his game.

So, Medicine Hat and Swift Current play game seven tomorrow night, and the Blades & Hurricanes play theirs on Wednesday. Second round matchups starting Friday with Calgary and Brandon are waiting for the winners of the two games.
