OHL Playoffs Begin: Knights Cruise, Generals Battle, OT Thriller in Kitchener!

Is this the year the London Knights finally break through? Their dominant regular season suggests a deep playoff run is inevitable, but early playoff upsets happen. Can anyone challenge their supremacy? I'm particularly intrigued by the Oshawa Generals. Colby Barlow's hat trick is a statement, but can their goaltending hold up?
Speaking of goaltending, the Flint Firebirds’ Nathan Day faced a barrage of shots in their overtime loss. How crucial will consistent goaltending be in these series? A hot goalie can steal a round, even against a heavily favored team. Which netminder do you think will be the x-factor in round one?
While the top seeds took care of business, were there any surprisingly close matchups? Brantford and North Bay seems to have been a higher scoring affair than some might have predicted. Could we see an unexpected upset brewing in that series? What other first-round series has upset potential?
Finally, any bold predictions for the OHL playoffs? Could this be the year a lower seed makes a Cinderella run? Which team do you think will hoist the J. Ross Robertson Cup? Let's hear your thoughts!
