"^ = TSN national broadcast"
+ = RDS national broadcast
"# = RDS & TSN national broadcast"
But don't be suprised if some games only available via the TSN app. They don't actually say they will be on any of the main channels via TV or cable.

It does say “TSN will begin airing the three leagues’ Championship Series from Game 3 onward, while RDS will provide complete coverage of the QMJHL Championship Series starting from Game 1 – the latter of which gets started on Friday, May 12”. Since the quote has no mention of it being limited to the app- I’d tend to lean to that saying that they’ll have it all on TSN’s television feed. They likely just have to wait until closer to in order to update their TV listings to reflect which one the games will be on (as there could be conflict with the NBA conference finals).

I've never seen a ticket sale start off so quick die off so fast. Hardly any movement of tickets after 11:30.
Some lower bowl tickets on ticket reseller sites for $100+. Anyone that though these tickets would go as fast as the world juniors tickets and attempting to profit just as much off of them are in for a little surprise. I hope we sell out. But if we don't, part of me is glad people purchasing for the sole purpose of reselling for outrageous prices won't get as much as they thought they would.

Not sure why anyone would think it's only on the TSN app. CHL League finals #roadtotheMemorialcup has been advertised on TSN for weeks (Starting May 15th) and has been on the FibeTV Guide for the last several days (before schedule was released). It has also been reported when the schedule came out that Games 3-7 would be on TSN.
As for the ticket sales, I'm surprised by the #'s left. Seems people were complaining about TicketAtlantic, but like most platforms, under heavy web traffic causes these type of issues. I suppose going to TicketMaster is possible, but not necessary for this reason alone. I used my phone at noon and had no issues at all with selecting seats and adding to the cart. Think the resale marking will be hurting until it's officially sold out.

It seems like Charle Truchon will be missing the first games for Quebec. It's a shame because he was injured after a vicious hit by Samuel Savoie with 25 seconds left in the 4th game... he then jumped on Bolduc and Belliveau fought with Roy. At least Sherbrooke took the loss with more dignity. It was a questionable decision by Louis Robitaille to send an hot head on the ice with little time left in the game.
Nico Savoie should be back after suffering an injury in the second game against Gatineau.
Bolduc - Rochette - Roy Malatesta - Gaucher - Gaudet C.Savoie - Robidas - Huchette Lavoie - Agostino - Cooper
N.Savoie - Langlois Nause - Komarov Wener - Darcy
Rousseau Miller

Bolduc - Rochette - Roy Malatesta - Gaucher - Gaudet C.Savoie - Robidas - Huchette Lavoie - Agostino - Cooper N.Savoie - Langlois Nause - Komarov Wener - Darcy Rousseau Miller I mean looking at that lineup, I totally think Halifax is capable of defeating a team like that, I really think in terms of depth Sherbrooke was better, but they got good goaltending and slightly more household names. Gaudet, Huchette, C-Savoie, make it feel a little more beatable but that may not be the case. L’Heureux | Lawrence | Boucher Doucet | Vidicek | Dumais MacPhee | Biasca | Cataford Peitzsche | Fournier | Crosby Moravec | Furlong Schultz | Phillips MacKinnon | Martin Chisholm M-Rousseau

C.Savoie and him have been really good to create space for Robidas. Huchette probably is a 25-30 goals scorer on the 3rd line in a complete season. As for Gaudet, he's having a breaktrough performance in these playoffs. After 14 points this season, he already has half that number in 12 playoffs games. I think Quebec's strength this season and in the playoffs has been their defensive game. They don't play like Sherbrooke and Gatineau with relentless offensive pressure. They play a more passive game.

Loser behaviour from him and the angry little elf. Guess you don't get many chances to hit the griddy when you're getting swept...

Btw - everyone keeps talking about Dumais coming back or not. But what about Whynot? Last time I heard about him he was out because of an "illness". Anyone know anything? Would love to have him back. Whynot was with the team for both their trips to Sherbrooke and has been on the ice for their morning skates... but I guess not healthy enough to play. His absence has hurt MacKinnon quite a bit I think, who has seen his even strength icetime decrease as the playoffs has gone along. It will certainly be interesting to see if Whynot is back in for this series. I find it strange that he is on for morning skates. Probably close to coming back maybe? As for his absence hurting Mackinnon, I am not buying that. I went back to see if that was the case and Mackinnon is logging more minutes then he has leading up to the playoffs. Mackinnon and Martin seem to be taking similar amount of even strength shifts but Martin's shift lengths seem to be shorter. Mackinnon is also playing way more PK time without Whynot in the line up. Really hoping Dumais is back for this final series. See lots of chatter whether to bring him back in or not. ABSOLUTELY bring him back in. As everyone else said, start him out on 3rd line and see where it goes from there. 2 other guys that will need to continue to be stellar, are L'Heureux and Rousseau. Boys oh boys these 2 were awesome in the Sherbrooke series. Super excited to see this get going. Go Moose Go!!!

L’Heureux | Lawrence | Boucher Doucet | Vidicek | Dumais MacPhee | Biasca | Cataford Peitzsche | Fournier | Crosby Moravec | Furlong Schultz | Phillips MacKinnon | Martin Chisholm M-Rousseau I felt that Patrick Roy did a good job finding role players at the deadline. Big splash in Robidas, sure. But his roster has been together for a couple years and he plugged in really good depth. Halifax's roster is a bit more front-loaded but less meticulously put together for this season specifically. Other teams don't have younger players like Peitzsche, Crosby, Martin, & Phillips on their roster. But that's to be expected when a team like Halifax has eyes on next year as well. Quebec have no 16 or 17 year olds on their healthy roster. 2 18 year olds, 13 19 year olds and 3 20 year olds. Sherbrooke's defense was big, quick and experienced. But I don't think they were ready for the threat Halifax posed in transition. I was shocked at the amount of odd-man rushes and breakaways the Moose had in that series. A defense like the Phoenix had should not be giving up that many chances. My gut says Roy and his crew will be more prepared for that and Halifax will have to generate more chances with offensive zone pressure, as Quebec will make fewer mistakes as a team. If I'm wrong, well Halifax deserves to win with the amount of mistakes their offense can make good teams make.

In Sherbrooke series the Phoenix felt they could step on the pedal and pound offensive pressure, get PP and win by hemming in the Moose D (especially young D) getting them to wilt. 40 shots a game not uncommon for Sherbrooke.
They drew it up that way but couldn't get goals. PP let them down. Sherbrooke acted as the aggressor and Halifax acted as the opportunistic defender.
I think the reason that didn't work was Rousseau + the Moose own ability to always be looking for odd man breaks. They didn't accidentally win the trophy for most offense. And the D + G played exceptional in frustrating Sherbrooke.
With 14% scoring percentage Halifax didn't need outshoot Sherbrooke to win. Normally shot differential tells who may win.
Vs Quebec - the Remparts defend well. All eggs are not invested in one part of their attack (like a PP). They play smarter not necessarily harder and it gets them results. I'm not sure if they will give Halifax more shots or fewer shots. But you can bet that Halifax gets lower quality chances. Quebec may be the smarter team, based on experience which may matter if series is long. Halifax though is a hard team to chase. They may relish the underdog role here.
