The Seattle Thunderbirds won their first WHL Championship 40 years after they arrived in town in 1977, a great achievement for the team but sadly it comes at the expense of Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Adam Brooks, whose season ended with an injury filled playoffs, two wins short of a championship.
May 5th - Home
L 2-1 - No Points
Adam Brooks was knocked out of the game after a huge hit from Seattle’s Turner Ottenbreit.
The Thunderbirds would win the game 2-1. Brooks has had some pretty bad injury luck these playoffs so far.
