Showing up for playoffs

[Jamie 439]

After sitting out for a round, the Lynx were stoked to face off against the Saskatoon Wild after they pulled off the upset against the Gladiators. Maybe most pumped was captain of Ottawa, Brennan McQueen. After what he considered a poor season as a second year VHLMer, he picked up his game after being paired with Gow and Samuelsson. McQueen would look to start a hopeful strong playoff rush and maybe go for MVP after losing out on what he thought he had the best chance for the best two-way forward.

 

McQueen would be facing off against who he thinks won the TWF award XXX. He had an outstanding season offensively and is a big bodied powerforward just like McQueen. In game one McQueen set his eyes on showing the other team who was boss and laid out a huge 14 hits just in that game! It was a close game though and the Lynx squeaked out with a win in overtime on a goal by Matt Rielly. In the second game McQueen decided to show his offensive touch and he potted 4 goals and an assist to go with that. After not playing in round one and just two games so far, Brennan is already all over the leaderboards.

 

There's still a long ways to go and the Wild are a strong team but a 2-0 series lead is a good start. Hopefully McQueen can keep up the play and aim towards a Cup before he graduates to the VHL next season.
