The Yeo boys will check their brotherly love at the door.

With the WHL Western Conference semifinal clash between the Calgary Hitmen and Brandon Wheat Kings starting tomorrow, Calgary defenceman Dylan Yeo will be going up against little brother Theran, a rookie who patrols the Wheaties blueline.

Aren't the Plante brothers going to be a little involved in this series as well??

Yup they sure are.

From the Brandon Sun (http://www.brandonsun.com/displayad.cgi?adnum=1178)

"...The Plantes and Yeos are set to take their sibling rivalry to a whole new level.
Two sets of brothers will go head-to-head in this series, with 17-year-old Wheat Kings rookie netminder Tyler Plante facing his brother Alex, a 15-year-old defenceman with the Hitmen, while 17-year-old Brandon blueliner Theran Yeo goes up against his older brother Dylan, an 18-year-old defenceman with Calgary.
"It's definitely interesting playing against my 15-year-old sibling in a WHL playoff," said Tyler Plante, a Brandon native and son of former Wheat King star Cam Plante. "I didn't think that would happen for a couple of years anyways. But yeah, we've got a bit of a rivalry going and it's going to be an interesting matchup..."
