Make your predictions
Who will win the series and in how many games
Felix Trudeau will miss the first two games of the series due to his suspension. Will it make a difference? Probably not.
West Kelowna has a talented team. Their leading goal scorer will be suspended for the first three games. Vernon will need to rise to the occasion. Lets hope they can get one of the first two games in Kelowna and then the momentum can build from that. A prediction from the heart ( only )....Vipers in 6 or 7
Unfortunately without any scoring and a defense that turns the puck over multiple times per period we will only have 2 home playoff games this year. Warriors in 5 but more than likely 4.
