Memorial Cup Final: Hunter Smith Goes For The Cup (5pm MT, SN West)
The junior hockey season ends tonight, as the Memorial Cup Final goes in Quebec City at 5pm MT on the Sportsnet national feed.
The OHL Champion Oshawa Generals, undefeated in this tournament, will face off against the WHL Champion Kelowna Rockets for junior hockey's richest prize. Flames second round pick Hunter Smith is expected to play a key role in this game, likely put into a shut-down spot against Oilers prospect Leon Draisiatl.
As the home team, Oshawa has last change. Smith's line was effective enough in shutting down future Oilers draft pick Connor McDavid in the OHL Championship series that they managed to qualify for this tournament, so it could easily happen again.
