Adams Cup Finals - Seattle versus San Francisco

The Seawolves won, but at the cost of an 0-9 beating. That has to hurt.

Fair play Dragons, we'll remember this.

The Canadian Shield IV Finals 

Toronto Terriers versus Halifax Kingfishers
The rising stars versus the league's first dynasty.  Unfortunately for the Kingfishers the young guns of Toronto put up a ton of goals on their way to a convincing sweep.  Toronto wins 



The 2003 Adams Cup Finals

Seattle Seawolves versus San Francisco Dragons
The finals drama was entirely in the US this season.  Arch rivals from the west faced off in the Adams Cup Finals.  A back and forth series that included 4 overtime games (game 7 went to OT I just missed the graphic).  The Game 7 in San Francisco was a one for the ages.  The Wolves tied the game late to send it to overtime.  They then slammed home the game winner midway through sudden death.
