Option 1: My team, the Quebec City Citadelles, will face the Vancouver Whalers in the first round of the upcoming playoffs. I think we cause a big surprised this season by ending the season in the top spot and I hoped we can keep our level of play at the same level. When we look at what happened for both teams during the regular season, I think most people will say that it should be an easy matchup for us because we add 70 points more than them during the regular season and we had a goal difference of +126, while they finished the regular season with a goal differential of -200, but once the playoffs start, anything can happen and we go back to square one. Since the Whalers are an inexperienced team, a good way to beat them would be to put constant pressure on the puck carrier which should lead to them committing mistakes on which we will get some opportunities to capitalize.
