Vipers try for RBC Cup repeat on TSN 2, Canucks try to stay alive...

Happy Mothers Day to all the Moms out there! You deserve wayyyyyy more than one day to be thanked for all that you did for us!

It's the final game of the CJHL season today as the defending RBC Cup Champion Vernon Vipers look to become the first ever team to repeat as RBC Cup Champions when they face the host Dauphin Kings.

Someone said on the BCHL Message Board that the Dauphin Kings are trying to become the first team since the 2000 Fort McMurray Oil Barons to win the championship through the front door.

Incorrect.

I had a press box seat as the Halifax Oland Exports won the 2002 RBC as the hosts - and they went through the front door winning the Maritime Junior Hockey League and the Eastern version of the Fred Page Cup to qualify. I had a press box seat as I was the play-by-play voice of the team the Exports beat, the OCN Blizzard, 3-1 with an empty netter in the dying moments. I still to this day feel the pain of that game. So close, yet so far.

Best of luck to the Vipers. Do the BCHL proud and show again that the BCHL is the best Junior A league in Canada

So far 2 posts in the first five minutes for the Vipes.....Good start.




It's win or go home for the Canucks tonight, as they face the Hawks in Chitown at 5:00pm. Here's some pregame scene setters from the Canucks website


If you can't get to a TV, no problem you can get it on 93.3 The Peak FM or our website www.933thepeak.com 


It seems that every single Canuck fan I have run into has already given up the fight, thinking the Canucks are d-o-n-e DONE. Come on people, it takes FOUR to win a series. Bulldog fans especially should know that after they saw a 3-1 series lead end in a 4-3 series loss. AND it's not like we didn't just see the Montreal Canadiens come back from a 3-1 series deficit against the Capitals in round 1.


Granted, I didn't watch Game 4 on Friday night as I was Mc'ing the Sportsman's Dinner so maybe if I had seen the horrors first hand I would be throwing in the towel too. It just takes a win tonight to make things start to get interesting again. Hopefully Luongo plays more like himself, as opposed to Dan Cloutier.


That's it for today! Go Vipers Go Nucks, THANKS MOM!
