WHL Playoffs: Spokane Chiefs face dynamic Medicine Hat club in WHL championship

(509) 459-5441

There’s a popular meme floating around in which three identical Spider-Men are looking and pointing at each other. It was adapted from a comic that originated in the 1960s and has become a default template for online jokes calling out the similarities between just about everything and anything.

One might use that meme to illustrate the how the Spokane Chiefs, their previous postseason opponent Portland Winterhawks, and upcoming WHL championship opponent Medicine Hat Tigers do a lot of things in the same manner.

They all want to push play, get up the ice in a hurry, generate a lot of shots on goal, then use a withering forecheck trying to get the puck back.
