Good luck, Boston.

There is no hope for the Racers.

The Canadian Shield XII Playoffs

#2 Toronto Terriers versus #3 Minnesota Loons
Offense meets defense in this classic CHL match up.  Despite their dominance of the past decade the Terriers only have one Shield to show for it.  Perhaps this will be the year that they can advance to the finals and pick up their second. The Loons loom large as their team is more formidable than ever before.  However in this particular series the Terriers get over the hump and into the finals.

It's all Cechmanek's fault. 

 
I mean, did his glove get taken off and pushed to the corner?
