2017-2018 we very nearly exited in the 2nd round. Owen Sound gave us all we handle, outscored us significantly in the series and pushed us to a 9-7 game 7 scoreline. That is a Greyhounds team that was good enough to win it all IMO, even though we fell to Hamilton in 6 in the finals.
There are different ways to lose in the 2nd round. Just making the 2nd round is not the goal. Competing is.
London can build a contender without going all in. It is what it is. I'd love the opportunity to knock them out in the 2nd round.
