I can't take the Memorial Cup seriously. When a team can lose a seven game series and still be in the tournament as the "host" team, it lacks integrity in my opinion. So, for defeating Vancouver in a seven game series, Medicine Hat's reward was having to play them again. :roll:

when did you lose your happy gene???

He might be a in a mood today, but I have to agree. Just because you are the "host" team it shouldnt gurantee you are in the finals win or lose, it does take some of the integrity away. I can see having automatic qualification as a reward but not a final berth.
