This series will be rocking from the get go!

The Huskies are coming off a hard fought battle with Mitchell. The Mustangs opportunity came in Game 1 in Steinbach, while holding large leads in the game, 6-2 into the third period- Steinbach awoke & never looked back- The Springfield Xtreme- the leagues top team this season- were true to form in their Division Semi Final against Ste Anne, only giving up one goal, which was in 3rd period of Game 3, completing the sweep of the Aces.
