Year End KIJHL Power Rankings & Playoff Predictions

The final installment of the KIJHL Power Rankings for the 2015/16 season. Not surprisingly the top teams from each conference are tied for first, Osoyoos Coyotes and Kimberley Dynamiters.

The hottest teams heading into the playoffs are the Summerland Steam and Columbia Valley Rockies.

The coldest team is the Kamloops Storm.

So here are the Power Rankings, and below are my playoff predictions:

Let's start off with Division Champions in the Playoff Predictions:
Kimberley Dynamiters, Beaver Valley Nitehawks, Osoyoos Coyotes and Chase Heat.

Next is the Conference Champions (no surprise, maybe easy picking):
Kimberley Dynamiters and Osoyoos Coyotes.

KIJHL Final.... well, it's a tie. But as in a past post the team that is the KIJHL league leader AND the top Power Ranked team have the greatest odds for winning, so I give the nod to:
Kimberley Dynamiters.

Dark Horses:
There is a 12 point difference between the Cats and Dynamiters, but they could surprise. PLUS the Hottest team heading into the playoffs is the Columbia Valley Rockies, so they could upset as well! Needless to say the Eddie Mountain division looks competitive.

Summerland Steam also come into the playoffs hot, and could upset in their division and conference. I have also learned not to doubt the 100 Mile House Wranglers and with home ice advantage clinched until the Conference Finals, they too are poised to upset.
