West Kelowna Warriors Playoff Push: Are They Contenders or Pretenders?

The West Kelowna Warriors have climbed into seventh in the Interior Conference, but with a tight race for the final playoff spots, are they truly built for a deep run? Their recent win against Nanaimo showcased some strong points, particularly on special teams. But is this a sign of real improvement, or just a temporary surge?

Coach Ferguson seems confident, sticking with the hot hands. Is this the right approach down the stretch, or should he be exploring other lineup combinations? How crucial will goaltending be in these final games? Edouard Gauthier had a strong performance against Nanaimo, can he maintain this level of play?

With upcoming games against Penticton and Brooks, both potential first-round opponents, the Warriors have a chance to prove themselves. Are these must-win games, or is the pressure more on Penticton and Brooks to maintain their positions?

What are your predictions for the Warriors in these upcoming matchups? Can they pull off upsets and solidify their playoff spot, or will they falter against the top teams? Share your insights and let the debate begin!
