For the record, only ONE Brabham Cup winning team (best regular season record) has ever won the Reilly Cup/Kelly Cup. That was the 97 South Carolina Stingrays.
Also have to make a plea for some respect for the 1998 Kelly Cup Champs, the Hampton Roads Admirals, who won as a 16th seed, winning every series clinching game on the road, including a win in Roanoke that saw them score two goals in the final minute of play for the victory.

The champions from the WHL, QMJHL & OHL will join the London Knights in the annual Memorial Cup tournament to declare Canadian major junior hockey champions. If London wins the OHL Championship, I believe that the runners up will join them in the tournament, since London's in no matter what.

You are correct, sir...both teams are in the Memorial Cup finals, so this series is just for pride and the OHL title.
BTW, my hometown is absolutely RABID in anticipation of the Cup coming to town. Everyone is obviously cheering hard for the Knights, but we're also kinda hoping Rimouski gets in so we can see Sid Crosby first-hand. GO KNIGHTS GO!

Well, I couldn't have been any more wrong!
4-0 series sweep for the Oceanic.
The scary thing is it's not just Crosby you have to stop...it's his whole line. Those kids can skate and score with anyone. | haz

The Oceanic are outstanding.
The Knights are hosting it and have been the top team in Junior all year.
That said, the 67's are playing outstanding right now, giving London all they can handle in the OHL final.
Whoever wins the WHL is good too.
Can't wait. I might even have to make the trip to London. | dunkndollaz

| #29 Posted on 22.5.05 0051.19 Reposted on: 22.5.12 0052.58 | | Well, the Knights took the first game. It took them until OT, when given how they dominated play, it should've been over by about a score of 7-3. London really needs to work on their power play, it's their Achilles heel. Starting Dennis wasn't a great move either, though he did improve as the game went on. | dunkndollaz

AND, that London-Rimouski game was just excellent! I sure do hope the finals of the tournament is a rematch. Great hockey! At this moment, I'm not missing the NHL one bit.

Richmond Street was wild last night with a nonstop party in honour of the Knights. It was great to see the whole city step up in support of this legendary team, and frankly, London did better than I thought in hosting the Memorial Cup. All hail the best CHL team in history! | Socks

Ahem, that Rimouski jobber, happens to be a prospect for the L.A Kings.
Perry is a great talent....but he spends more time on his back, or whining to the refs then Crosby does... | dunkndollaz
