The Brahmas have lost both games they have played against the Blazers this month. Oklahoma City is good. They have a record currently at 12-1-2 (12-3, adjusted) and have the second best record in the CHL (post put together on Tuesday) and are tied with the most points in the CHL with 26.Brahmas to Watch:
- Pete Rouleau (F): 15 points
- Grant Jacobsen (F): 15 points
- Tyler Skworchinski (F): 12 points
- Scott Sheppard (F): 16 points
- Brett Jaeger: 10 games, 7-1-1 record, with a 2.64 GAA and a .913 SV%
Blazers to Watch:
- Bill Vandermeer (RW): 16 points
- Simon Lambert (RW): 14 points
- Oriel McHugh (D): 12 points
- Jason Murfitt (C): 12 points
- Andy Franck: 13 games, 9-1-2 record, with a 1.53 GAA and a .938 SV%
They look evenly matched until you consider the goalie. The Blazers goalie is by far superior to the Brahmas goalie, who is above average, as well. Jaeger does have his hangups with the Blazers, for whatever reason, so that is an intangible to the Blazers.
Forecast: I would have to say that I have been somewhat obvious on who I think will win this game, but for whatever reason, my mind and gut are in disagreement. I think Blazers, but my gut is saying Brahmas. One of them will have to give... and that will be... my gut. Let's go with the Blazers go 3-0 in November against the Brahmas with a score of 4-1.
