saw in replies to the various quotes that’s there’s some speculation (no actual knowledge just a guess) that the ownership group will pivot from ECHL to QMJHL

Medicine Hat Tigers have won the Ed Chynoweth Cup over the Spokane Chiefs in 5 games with a 4-2 win. I couldn't watch much of this one, first because Clark Cup Finals game 3 went to double overtime, and second the power had gone out starting the 4th intermission in Muskegon/1st intermission in Spokane. It was an evenly played game from what I saw.
Gavin McKenna played, only had 1 goal. Cayden Lindstrom (Michigan State) played some, but definitely in limited minutes, was not always on the bench. No points tonight, but was a +1 and took a penalty. Mathew Ward (Northern Michigan) 1a +1 3 shots, 10/18 on faceoffs
Notably, a finnish import played for Medicine Hat scored the first goal of the game, which further supports the theory of finns = wins. Unlike Halttunen who scored the same clip last years playoffs, this is first-year OHLer stay at home defenseman Niilopekka Muhonen who had 4 goals in 60 games this season scoring his first goal of the playoffs. Unlikely candidate to say the least. Like London, both their import picks this year were Finnish players at the same position.
Shea Van Olm (Penn State) had 4 shots, 1 penalty. The top line of SVO-Catton-Cristall accounted for 19 of the Chiefs 36 shots.
Brayden Crampton (BGSU) had 1 assist, 3 shots.
the entire field of the memorial cup is now set. Moncton Wildcats, London Knights, Medicine Hat Tigers, and Rimouski Océanic will duel it out for the Memorial Cup. If the pattern holds, Moncton gets it done tomorrow evening and all reconvene in Rimouski in one week.

After last year saw all 3 CHL championships be sweeps, they almost had a similar situation but with every finals series going 5 games. Rimouski Océanic decided to play spoiler yesterday, winning game 5 on the road 3-1.
Shots were 23-34 in favor of Moncton, no power plays either side. Only penalties charged came at the end of the game. One unique stat the Q tracks and has on their game sheets is if a shot is dangerous, as a fraction, the column is DS/S. Rimouski had 11 of their 23 shots considered dangerous, while only 9 of Moncton's 34 were considered dangerous.
Mathieu (Northeastern) 2g (1st goal and empty netter). Fauchon (Providence) was notably quiet, he's often a volume shooter but had no shots. Belzil's (UMass) 4th line has received praise from their coach and gotten more ice time.
Can confirm Coughlin (Maine) is injured again, seems the head hit he received in the Chicoutimi game not only gave him likely a concussion, but there was also some lower body injury as well. Seems during his return that lower body injury didn't feel totally right, and they'd much rather have him be healthy for the Memorial Cup than push himself to play in the finals.
Game 6 is tomorrow in Rimouski at 1pm ET. Matinee game on a Monday might seem like a bad idea, but May 19th is Victoria Day, a national holiday in Canada. Almost no one will have work or school that day. I'd guess Guimond (Yale) to be back in net.

Moncton has won the QMJHL championship in 6 games, 3-2 win. Rimouski has a surge in the 3rd period but couldn't complete the comeback. Moncton dominated the 2nd period, outshooting Rimouski 19-7. Total shots were 33-26. Moncton still lost the faceoff battle, which they did most games. More hits this game too, and more power plays. 0/2 Moncton, 1/4 Rimouski
Vidicek (Quinnipiac) 1 shot, 11/24 faceoffs
Desnoyer +1, 3 shots, 3/3 faceoffs, 1 minor penalty
Fauchon (Providence) 1 goal, 3 shots, +1
Mathieu (Northeastern) 1 goal 1 assist, 4 shots, +1, 11/16 faceoffs
Now, on to the Memorial Cup! Preview posts coming soon
Also- G Harrison Meneghin of Medicine Hat Tigers signed his ELC w Tampa

Smart of McDougall to put him back in net for game 6. Rooster has always been great in big games, despite what some Canadians would tell you (happens to be unable to stop PUCKS PUT INTO THE NET BY HIS OWN DEFENSEMAN).
