MOOSE JAW — The Saskatoon Blades’ first WHL playoff appearance in six years is already a sweeping success. Saskatoon needed just four games to eliminate the Moose Jaw Warriors, wrapping up a first-round sweep on Wednesday night with an unpredictable and wildly entertaining 4-3 overtime decision at Mosaic Place. It was just a bad bounce, bad luck.”Although the series ended in four straight, the Blades had to work for it. Moose Jaw took a 2-1 lead just 2:06 into the second period when Matthew Benson buried his first career WHL goal. Moose Jaw continued to play with fire during the same man advantage by allowing another breakaway.
