MT – I’m not a huge fan of the Ams jerseys, but I may be alone in that department. Tri-City has made it through two rounds now, beating Regina and Moose Jaw. However they have only beaten their opponents by a combined 17 votes. They’ll face their first opponent from the West in Vancouver in the quarter finals.

MT – The Langley Giants had a bye in the first round and got by Saskatoon by five votes in the second round. I wouldn’t have predicted either of these teams making the quarter finals, but here we are and one of them will be a semi finalist. This will be a much tougher match up for the Giants than their only other test.

MT – Spokane handled the Oil Kings easily in the second round beating them by 21 votes. This iconic look won’t be beaten easily, however they’ll have a much tougher matchup against the Tigers.

MT – Not a big surprise to see this vintage look get this far. The Tigers doubled up on the Winterhawks in the second round and had an easy first round matchup with the ICE. Things will definitely be tougher up against the Chiefs. I think this will be one tight contest that could be decided by very few votes.
