To be honest, of the two teams in the FNHL FINALS, if I think back to the season I believe I thought Colorado had a better chance of making it through to Championship week Aka the Finals if they got an early matchup against the Pacific #2 or #3 teams. Stll the Avs had to get past the drcending Champion Kings in their 1st Rd matchup. Avs made lots of bold moves to improve their team when AntMan bought them in late December 2016.
Also didnt think Boston could make it past Round 2 given the pile of stacked teams in the East.
Of course I thought my Panthers would easily make it out of Round 1 instead of getting knocked out in the 1st. BooYah! you Blkhwkfn and your cheapshot artist Maple Leafs.
