No facchinelli in the lineup tonight?

How come the Showcase is in Seattle as they don't have a BCHL team

Graham Turnbull said during the broadcast tonight, the Vipers are hoping to have Julian Facchinelli back in the lineup tomorrow.

The Showcase is in Seattle because it's very easy for NCAA coaches and scouts to access. Seattle is an aviation hub with lots of flights. Even in Chilliwack, it would involve getting to Vancouver and then driving out to Chilliwack.
