Lets look at some games VS Top CHL teams.
Blades VS Vancouver(Vancouver was the best CHL team at the time)
2-1 Vancouver
----------------------------------
Blades VS Kootenay( I believe this seiries is 2-2)
----------------------------------
Blades VS Tigers
Tigers 5 - Blades 4 (OT)
Tigers 3 - Blades 2
----------------------------------
Blades VS Wheatkings
Blades 3 - Wheatkings 1
Blades 4 - Wheatkings 5(S.O)
My point is the Blades have played top teams very well. Should the Blades meet the Wheatkings in the first round, i think it will be a GREAT series. If the Wheatkings take the Blades lightly, there will be an upset.
Keep in mind im speaking as if we clinch playoffs. If we keep playing like we have in recent weeks, we just may sneak in. IMO the Blades(given thier crapload of injuries) have FAR exceeded thier expectations. There is no quit in this club and i only see good things in the future. If we play with this much heart when Berg, Elliot, Like, Hamilton, are 17, Hulak, Gillies, Holtby are 19. We will make some noise.
