For the fifth consecutive season, we enjoyed a Game 7 in the Conference Finals. And now, the championship is set as London will host Oshawa. But there's so much more to discuss, including the continued inability for the Memorial Cup hosts to win their league, a concerning rash of suspensions, another coaching search, and Canada's golden U18s. Oh yeah, and our Performers of the Week as we whittle the 20-team league down to the last two standing.

Little drama to-date in the OHL's final four as London and Oshawa show that they're best-in-class. And, really, the signs were there long before the playoffs even began. Also, another coach is added to the list of this season's casualties, a former OHL'er makes his NHL debut, and our Performers of the Week.

I'll never pass up the chance to talk to a former Cornwall Royal on the podcast, so please join me in welcoming Eric Calder to the show. A second round pick of the Royals in 1980, Calder would win the Memorial Cup in his sophomore season, the second of back-to-back titles for the Royals as they moved from the QMJHL to the Ontario league. He played as one of the youngest-ever players with Canada's World Junior Championship squad in 1981 and was ultimately drafted in the third round by the Washington Capitals. Calder made his professional mark in Europe, though, and is also credited with helping to grow the game in, of all places, China. A self-proclaimed "hockey lifer," Calder remains committed to helping young players develop their skills today and he's always ready to spin a yarn.

Three sweeps and seven games. That's how the second round of the OHL playoffs have shaped up, and we'll start with the most surprising at all. It's not the victor, though. It's the vanquished, and another long off-season ahead with questions to be answered in Sudbury. Don't worry, North Bay gets its due as well, and Dan and Mike dive into the Oshawa sweep of Ottawa, they've got more to say about London, and they look ahead to a big Game 7 in Saginaw. Plus, how everybody is suddenly re-refereering the refs, increased options for 16-year old hockey players, and our Performers of the Week.

North Bay and Oshawa surprise, while London continues to London and we've got a series between Saginaw and the Soo. Of course, all of this is subject to change with a quartet of terrific semi-final match-ups in the OHL. Dan and Mike also dive into ticket-selling tactics, the escalating costs for new arenas, and their Performers of the Week.

The Barrie Colts bring some playoff heat to the red-hot Oshawa Generals and this season's ultimate suitcase story is there with the Battalion as they close out the Frontenacs. We had to look for stories in the East because the West was won in sweeps almost across the board, leaving lingering questions in Owen Sound and Guelph. Plus, the hard work that has to be done to end the embarrassment of coaches being kicked out of games, the end of the 3 Stars forever (?), and our Performers of the Week.

Niagara loses another draft lottery while the Guelph Storm lose a key player to suspension for four playoff games. Plus, Dan and Mike dive into the email Inbox and keep their commitment to respond to everything, good or bad. They've also got a list of some names to listen for in the upcoming OHL draft and a look at the first weekend of playoff action, which features a statement by Sudbury and some surprisingly strong play by Barrie.

After a solid season in the discipline and reaction-time department, the OHL blew all of its goodwill out of the water with a frustratingly inconsistent final few weeks. Dan and Mike have some hopes for the off-season ahead when it comes to improvements to how the league dispenses justice and how it supports its officiating teams. Plus, increasing competition for the top 16-year old prospects should be turning heads at the league offices and the guys stick out their necks with some playoff predictions.

From small town Ontario to OHL captain, where his time with the Kitchener Rangers is still marked by a disappointing playoff loss to the Peterborough Petes. Though drafted by the New York Rangers, Larry Huras really made his mark in Europe, where he's a multi-time European champion. The so-called "hockey lifer" is still in the game as he shares his coaching knowledge with the next generation. With six decades in the game, Huras has a ton of stories and has crossed paths with some of the best in the business.

With a red-hot Eastern Conference team and playoff races coming down to the wire, there's a lot to love in the OHL right now. Unfortunately, the OHL's own mess off the ice is the big story of the week and Dan and Mike dive into the terrible precedent that's been set by the league walking back its bounty suspensions. On the ice, it's all about Oshawa and how they've created some separation in a crowded Eastern Conference. Plus, Saginaw stumbles out of first, the OAs that deserve a closer look, regular season versus post-season officiating, and our Prospects of the Week. Along with an unscripted rash of pop culture references, the guys might even toss in a name that's gaining traction as a possible contender for the role of OHL Commissioner.
