Toronto 6 win the Isobel Cup, in OT. I'm sure there are real reasons behind this, but I find a single game Final to be just stupid. 3 game series to get there and then one bad play can cost you a championship? Not cool.
Well, it did work insofar that it gave a lot of hype and exposure to the game by giving it Super Bowl-like importance, which a series of even three games would not have done.
I'd also argue fluke results happen in playoffs regardless. Just look at the Whitecaps. Not trying to take anything away from them but they were obviously not the top seed going into it.
