Very wide open section from here on out.
Forest Lake knows they are capable of pulling this off.
GR knows Forest Lake is capable of pulling this off.
Should be a great game.

I'm really looking forward to this one. GR has a little more depth and its higher end is a little bit better, and has been a half step ahead of the rest of 7AA since mid-January or so. But, FL has better goaltending and won the regular season meeting, so they know they can beat Rapids. I think both teams are well-coached and have a plan for what they want to do, and this has been a fun mini-rivalry over the years, with Flake generally punching above its weight. We'll see if they can break through and make their first ever 7AA final, or if the experienced hand here can take care of business.
