Thursday recap -
In the OHL the first upset of 2023 is complete. Kitchener has taken down a top seed in the first round for the 2nd year in a row. Bye bye Windsor. Swept by the Rangers.
Another first of 2023 is we have our first confirmed second round series as with London also sweeping Owen Sound in 4 straight we know that London will open against Kitchener next week.
Other OHL series from Thursday had Ottawa move up 3-1 on Oshawa. And Barrie won game 5 vs Hamilton to take a 3-2 lead on Hamilton.
Guelph is the 2nd team in CHL to defy fate with a game 4 push back against Sarnia. Sting go home up 3-1 on the Storm.
Note goalie goal alert!!! Barrie scored a goalie goal in that game. Be sure to Google it. Pretty cool watching goalie do the high five skate by his team bench.
No Q action Thursday but the W had one game as Memorial Cup host Kamloops completed a sweep of Vancouver.
What we know about round 2 -
Seattle, Kamloops, Moose Jaw, Winnipeg,London, Kitchener, Peterborough, Quebec, Halifax, Sherbrooke are all now waiting. Only London-Kitchener know whom they are playing for sure.

Ouch ... Shane Wright swept out of the playoffs ... tough end to a tough 12 months for him. Slid in the NHL draft, struggled in Seattle, seemed to find his footing a bit at the World Juniors and in the second half in the OHL, only to underperform and have his team get swept as a #1 seed in the first round of the playoffs. Jason Bukala did a 2022 re-draft column yesterday on Sportsnet and had Wright outside of the top-10 ... at this point, where does he go next year? Back to the OHL? Or is he AHL eligible? Because he does not appear to be NHL ready ... There used to be (still is?) a rule that if a player had played four years of junior (i.e. played at 15 as an exceptional player) they could play AHL at 19 - but Wright did not play at all his 16 y/o season as the OHL shut down due to COVID. Wonder where he stands?

As a Moose fan I don't know how I feel about Drummondville upsetting Victoriaville. Halifax still has to make it through round two in order for it to matter. But if I'm hoping for a situation in the west, it would be for the best teams to make it through to round two to give Sherbrooke and Gatineau a tougher time. Gatineau playing Rouyn-Noranda instead of Victoriaville isn't that big of a change. It should still be a win for the Olympiques in 4 or 5 games. But now Sherbrooke gets to destroy Drummondville, who had their feel good moment in round one and shouldn't put up too much of a fight against the Phoenix.

Hockey thirsty Q fans - sadly QMJHL is dark this weekend as all but one first round series have completed. Baie-Comeau & Moncton play game 6 on Monday.
But today if you want your fix Ottawa hosts Oshawa in game 5 with a chance to close it out.
Saginaw is at Flint in game 6 also tonight. Flint trying to force game 7.
Bedard and the Pats can be eliminated tonight in Regina as Saskatoon now leads series 3-2
And Portland host Everett in game 5 - last night the Hawks lay a total egg in a 5-0 loss in Everett to anul any sweep. (Kamloops is awaiting Portland if they can close it out).
